Get Ready for Baseball Season in Arizona

Chase Field
Baseball season is finally upon us, and luckily, we don’t have to travel far from Peoria to enjoy America’s favorite past time. Here at Lunde’s Peoria Volkswagen, we’re located less than a half hour’s drive from Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks, and we’ve got some tips for making the most out of your next major league game! Half of the fun of going to a baseball game starts before the game even begins—that’s right, we’re talking about tailgating. With the following helpful hints, you and your Volkswagen will be the talk of the parking lot!

Pack the Cooler Like a Pro

VW models offer plenty of trunk space, especially SUVs like the Atlas and Touareg—and even spacious sedans like the Jetta, so there’s no reason to leave the cooler behind. However, there is an art to packing a cooler. To get the most out of your cooler, make sure to chill everything first—especially perishable foods and beverages—nobody likes a warm beer. Keep the cans and bottles to the bottom of the cooler; this allows them to stay cooler for longer. Throw in a layer of ice over the drinks and food containers, making sure that it falls between any crevices. tailgate party

A Toolbox Does a Lot More Than Carry Tools

Empty out the toolbox in your garage! Turns out, a toolbox is the perfect carrying case for tailgating essentials. The main compartment can fit things like spatulas, bottle openers, tongs, a can opener, and skewers. In the middle compartment, pack trash bags, paper towels, sunscreen, plastic zip bags, and hand sanitizer. The bottom drawer is where your favorite condiments, spices, and seasonings will call home. From there, all you need is a portable grill and you’re ready to go! You’ll be the talk of the parking lot party for weeks!
