Stumped on how to pregame for Garth Brooks? This country star is coming to Boise to tailgate

Wanting to know what to do ahead of the Garth Brooks shows at Albertsons Stadium? Want to get tailgating season started before Boise State University’s first home game against Marshall?

Trisha Yearwood has you covered.

Yearwood, the award-winning country music star and namesake of the Food Network’s “Trisha’s Southern Kitchen,” is bringing a Trisha’s Tailgate event to Boise from 3-6 p.m. July 20 as a lead-in to that night’s show. Yearwood and Brooks have been married since 2005.

Trisha’s Tailgates have preceded Brooks’ concerts in Arizona, Florida, Pittsburgh and at Notre Dame.

Tickets go on sale for the tailgate Friday; for $75, you get a ticket good for unlimited food and two drink tickets.

“You know I love to entertain, and I can’t wait to bring Trisha’s Tailgate to Boise,” Yearwood said in a press release. “It’s the ultimate fan experience with all of my favorite things — good food, good drinks, good music and good company.”

Brooks, performing in Boise for the first time since 1992, will hold two shows at Albertsons Stadium. Initially, there was one show planned for July 20; tickets sold out in less than an hour. A second show was added May 23.
