University Tailgating Inflatables

Host the best game-day tailgate with university tailgating inflatables designed and manufactured by Inflatable Design Group.

Universities all around the country host pre-game tailgates for their fans, students, and community.  These tailgates have become part of a game-day tradition that people look forward to and are a great way to increase team spirit.  

IDG has made custom university tailgating inflatables for schools all over the country and of all different sizes.  In fact, many of the schools known for having the best college football tailgate experiences have some of IDG’s custom sports inflatables.

University of Washington, Inflatable Mascot

It is no secret that University of Washington (UW) students and fans are loyal to their mascot, Harry the Husky.  In fact, many locations around the university and city are named after the beloved mascot.  This includes Husky Stadium, where UW’s football team plays, and Husky Harbor, a popular place where UW fans will ‘sailgate’, or tailgate on a boat, before kickoff.

IDG worked with UW to create a giant custom inflatable husky mascot.  This inflatable mascot can often be seen at tailgates or other campus events.  It provides students, alumni, faculty, and fans with a fun photo opportunity and is an excellent addition to their pre-game tailgate. 

IDG’s inflatable mascots are among our most popular university tailgating inflatables.  They are extremely easy to set up and only take a couple of minutes to inflate.  They also pack away into surprisingly small packages making them easy to store and transport.  Since they pack away small, you can take your inflatable mascot anywhere your team may go! 

Our talented team can bring any university mascot to life in the form of a giant custom inflatable!  See more examples of our past work here.

University of Nebraska, Custom Inflatable Games

One of the essentials for football tailgates is the game corn hole.  Corn hole is a game that people of all ages can play and is simple enough that it can be played with a drink in your hand! 

IDG takes the traditional corn hole game up a notch with our giant inflatable corn hole set.  Each inflatable corn hole board measures about 13’ L x 6’6” W x 3’ H.  Toss pillows are included with each board and each board is customizable to show off your brand. 

In addition to giant inflatable corn hole, IDG has a ton of other interactive inflatable games that make the perfect addition to any university tailgate.  This includes the below inflatable tic-tac-toe and inflatable free throw game, both of these were customized to match the University of Nebraska’s colors and show off their brand.

University of Nebraska’s football team has one of the most loyal fan bases in college football.  We like to think it’s because fans get hyped up playing the University of Nebraska’s custom inflatable games during their tailgate!  Check out all IDG’s inflatable games here, all are customizable.

Auburn University, Giant Inflatable Couch

Nowadays, everything ends up on social media.  Make sure your college football tailgate makes the cut with one of IDG’s custom giant inflatable couches.

IDG’s custom inflatable couches measure about 8’L x 6.5’ W x 8.5’ H.  They are fun for fans of all ages and make the perfect photo opp!  You can use your custom university-branded inflatable couch at your tailgate or even in your stadium.  Some teams have gotten creative and raffle off tickets to watch the game from them as the giant inflatable couches truly are the best seat in the house.

IDG can match your university color and decorate your inflatable couch with any design or logo you want!  You also have the option of adding removable banners to your couch so you can change out the signage.  This is perfect if your school sponsors ae consistently changing or you want to use your inflatable couch at different campus events throughout the year.

Our giant inflatable couches (and inflatable chairs) are one of our most popular university tailgating inflatables and it is easy to see why!  They are easy to use and easy to transport to off-campus events.  Giant inflatable couches are great for any sports game, tailgate, or other campus events.  Check out examples of inflatable couches here.

University of Georgia, Custom Inflatable Arch

Make sure your fans know where the pre-game fun begins with a custom inflatable arch. 

Custom inflatable arches are a great way to welcome your fans to your tailgate.  IDG has many different styles and sizes of inflatable arches for you to choose from.  Our team can even make you a completely custom-shaped arch, as we did for the Georgia Bulldogs. 

The custom inflatable arch IDG designed for the University of Georgia was designed to look like a bulldog color and has the university’s logo as the dog tag.  The inflatable arch, along with the custom inflatable bone-shaped logo block next to it, is a great way to welcome fans to the tailgate. 

Just like all our other university tailgating inflatables, inflatable arches are 100% customizable and can be used all year long for different events, on and off-campus.  Check out more examples of inflatable arches and other inflatable entryways on our website.
