Yard Party 3

Yard Party 3

Join us for an unforgettable experience at The Yard Party, where we're taking tailgating to a whole new level! Get ready to swing for the fences, (over)indulge in mouthwatering food from Portillo's, enjoy refreshing drinks, and cheer on the Chicago White Sox in style. This is not your average game day – it's an epic celebration!

What’s Included?

  • Two Hours of Tailgate Bliss: Kick off the festivities with two hours of pre-game tailgating in the parking lot. Picture this: great company and the tantalizing aroma of Portillo's beef and hotdogs filling the air. We got the food and booze covered, so all you need to bring is your appetite for a good time, and cash for 50/50!

  • Limited Edition Shirt: As a token of our appreciation for joining The Yard Party, you’ll get a limited edition shirt.

  • Game Time Thrills: The excitement doesn't end at the tailgate. Your ticket gets you in the game.

Last One Standing In The Yard

  • $50/entry.

  • Last one standing wins the pot.

  • Participants are allowed as many entries as they want for $50/entry.

  • The pool starts with Week 1 and runs through the NFL regular season only.

  • Each pool member chooses one NFL team each week they think will WIN their game outright (picks are made 'straight up', not using a point spread system).

  • NFL teams can only be picked once during the season.

  • If a game your picked team is playing in results in a tie, your pick will be correct and your entry will advance.

  • The final pick deadline each week is Sunday at 1pm ET. If you want to pick an earlier game you must do so by kickoff of that game.

  • If a member does not enter a pick for a specific week, no automatic pick will be made and the entry will be eliminated.

  • If a game is canceled, postponed to a future week, or otherwise not played (e.g. forfeited), members who picked the game will have their pick replaced with the smallest available favorite from games starting after your pick deadline. Members can change this pick if your pick deadline has not passed yet. NOTE: If a late game is canceled last minute, this may result in a pick being assigned from an earlier game that has already been completed.

  • You can purchase as many mulligans as you want for $10/each. They are as needed, so come back whenever you need to purchase them.

  • The Last One In The Yard wins.*

*if there is a tie the person with the best win/loss record wins.
