Lines for Porta-Potties also led many tailgaters to illegally urinate in public.

“There were just way too few Porta-Potties,” said Undergraduate Council President Matthew W. Mahan ’05. “It’s almost unreasonable to expect people to wait in line for half an hour to use the Porta-Potties.”

Corker said that although he had not seen statistics from Saturday, he believed the new rules had made the tailgate safer.

“We learned a lot from centralizing the tailgate this year,” Associate Dean of the College Judith H. Kidd and Assistant Dean of the College Paul J. McLoughlin II wrote in an e-mail. “We plan on an extensive debriefing process over the coming weeks, getting feedback from a variety of groups.”

Mahan added that despite some binge drinking, he was “really proud” of students’ conduct Saturday.

“Overall this is a pretty workable model, with a few modifications, for the future tailgates,” Mahan said.

Brooks W. Scholl ’08, who attended the Game last year at Yale, said the new rules were not affecting his tailgating experience.

“They made the rules different for safety, but it’s still the same,” he said. “Everyone is together—we’re rockin’ out.”

But some Yale students expressed their dissatisfaction with the increased regulation at this year’s Game.

“I’ll be honest—we’re not particularly happy about the new policies,” said Yale senior Charlie K. Ambler. “But people have adapted.”
