With Autumn comes NFL Sundays. Some wait in angst all year long for the NFL season to begin.

Forbes compiled a list of the 10 best tailgating towns in the NFL. Among them are Buffalo, Foxboro, Green Bay,  and Philadelphia.  They’re all within driving distance from the Canadian border and have parking lots that open as early as five hours before game time!

Of course you’re not limited to what Forbes says are the best cities.  You can visit any of the other teams near the border (like Seattle, Minnesota, and Detroit), and start your own “best” party.

Travel agents have long fed the need for people to take part in the NFL tailgating experience.  Check out our tips for organizing a bus tour.  If you don’t want to plan your own bus trip, call ahead and see if the bus you plan on taking stops at the Duty Free.

Then again, you could grab some friends and drive, pick up more friends at the Duty Free land border store, and make your way from there!

Depending on how long you plan to stay, you are allowed different amounts of duty free goods to bring into the US from Canada.

Check on the specials in your area to see what you can pick up duty free before you cross!
