I wasn't able to determine if tailgaiting is allowed. If you really want to tailgate, I would suggest calling Qualcomm stadium.

August 5th

So is the public able to view the 9am practice on wednesday? It’s my first traning camp, how do autographs work?

by Sproles! on Aug 3, 2009 9:42 AM PDT reply actions  

No

Only the night practice, which will be held at Qualcomm, is open to the public. Show up early and stay late to have the best shot at getting an autograph.

Hey

On Saturday Aug. 8th,Fanfest will be held and practice will be right after.It’s the best time to get autographs from the players.They walk around giving them on the field,But you have to be there with a kid 14 or younger.There’s no tailgaiting but i think food is cheap.Also bring a hat or umbrella or sunblock,whatever you like it WILL be hot.
