TAMPA, Fla. - The 2010 NFL regular season kicks off for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers today. If you are heading out to RayJay you’ll want to make sure you have the latest in tailgating accessories. Meghan Boudreau from Sports Authority joined Bill Logan on ABC Action News this morning and showed Bill some of the latest tailgating gadgets you’ll just want to have.

Tents are great way to stay in the shade. The Sportsbrella sells for $80. It even has windows to adjust the amount of sun and shade that you want. It collapses and is very compact.

How about a canopy that you can carry on your back? Then check out the Backpack Canopy which folds up to the size of a backpack that you can carry with you.

Portable chairs are a must have and prices start as low as $10.

What’s tailgating without grilling?

The Fire and Ice grill sells for $180 and it collapses down small enough where you can put in the back seat of your car. Under the grill are two coolers to keep your food and drinks refrigerated.

If you want to stay cool at the game. Check out the Chilly pad. When wet, the towel begins to evaporate and cool. When it stops cooling, you just re-wet the towel in hot or cold water and wring it out. Within minutes, it’s cool again.
