After one woman was run over at the Harvard-Yale tailgate in November, Yale announced today that they've banned kegs and student-driven trucks from the tailgate, which will now end at kickoff. Guess that means more Ivy League football for all? More »

NEW HAVEN, Conn.—I could tell you about dropping by the Yale crew alumni tailgate on Saturday, and taking a shot of Jim Beam with a slice of prosciutto, but that's not the reason the Game's 2011 tailgate will forever be the Tailgate. We'll now call it the Tailgate because three women there got run over by a U-Haul, and one died. More »

Deadspin correspondent Craig Fehrman went to the 126th edition of Harvard-Yale, where he confronted both the overwrought mythology of The Game and the overexposure of at least one penis. More »

Each year during "The Game" (which most tailgaters do not even pay attention to) the blue bloods invade the yard and show off their finest Ivy League elbow-bending techniques. It's like a beer-sopped L.L. Bean catalog come to life. More »

Playing with the New England Patriots against Bow Wow's Cincinnati Bengals (What?), The Game raced out to a 21-0 lead and cruised in for the 55-23 victory. I have to say I'm glad Bow Wow got his beatdown because Lil' Bow Wow stood up Deadspin. And by Deadspin, I mean me. After our post about the game, we were contacted by the publicists behind the contest to see if we wanted to talk to the video game combatants. I said I did. A time was scheduled (for Friday night no less) and I received multiple calls letting me know that, "You'll be hearing from Bow Wow soon." You can imagine my excitement. More »

No word on whether field goals are allowed. The loser's donating the money to charity. And by money I mean, part of the record company's marketing budget. Which then becomes a tax deduction. Bow Wow (nee Shad Moss), who will also be appearing in the upcoming season of Entourage (that's really unfortunate), is rumored to have an album coming out in November. You might recall him better as Lil Bow Wow, a moniker the 21-year-old has now outgrown. The Game (top result on Wikipedia is Harvard-Yale) was teammates with Baron Davis in high school and Davis is the godfather to his son. Whatever. Raise your hand if you're also the dorky white guy who looks up rapper bios on Wikipedia. More »

OK, we're going to need an ruling on this one. But we think what just happened is that LA rapper The Game offered to kick David Beckham's ass if he should ever see him. At least we hope that's what he said. You make the call: More »
