<p>I have never been to family weekend before. I noticed online that there is a $20 per parent fee and $10 per child or student. Does this fee cover anything besides the tailgate? Do a lot of students attend the tailgate or do they do there own thing while the parents attend? Any other advice about what to participate in on parents weekend would be much appreciated!</p>
<p>We went to the parent weekend tailgate last year and had fun, however, I am not sure it was worth the fee for the parent weekend events. There is so much going around campus both for parents and kids ( Greek/honors/etc) that the university parent weekend events were not that big. AND it was also crazy Alabama hot that day. We have tickets for another game this year and will be going later in the season and tailgating on our own. Games are so much fun it really does not matter which one you go to …</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice eagle reader!</p>
