Ole Miss football: Hotty Toddy

The Grove is the most famous tailgate in college football: ten acres of tents, chandeliers, and Sunday-best outfits under the oaks. Then the Walk of Champions, then Vaught-Hemingway, then "Hotty Toddy" until your voice gives out. Ole Miss fans may not win every game, but they never lose a party, home or away.

When do rides to Ole Miss away games leave?

For a Saturday game most cars leave Oxford late Friday or early Saturday morning, depending on the distance and kickoff time, and come back Sunday.

Louisville in Nashville, TN (233 mi); Florida in Gainesville, FL (594 mi); Vanderbilt in Nashville, TN (231 mi); Texas in Austin, TX (728 mi); Oklahoma in Norman, OK (557 mi). The longest drive is Texas at about 11 hr.

What does it cost?

ThumbRides is free. The driver sets a per-seat share of the gas, within the IRS cost-sharing limit, and riders pay the driver directly. ThumbRides never takes a cut.

Is it safe to ride with another student?
