Gameday Recycling & Trash
 Please take pride in our Athens community and the campus of the University by picking up after yourself. Gamedays generate a lot of waste material, but you can do your part by ensuring that you are recycling correctly. Glass bottles, aluminum cans, plastic bottles/containers/cups #1-7 can all be recycled in our tailgating and permanent recycling receptacles. Please, NO FOOD, NO FOAM (styrofoam), and NO FILM (plastic bags) in the recycling.

 Also consider bringing reusable wares to your tailgate. Just like scouts and campers, pack in and pack out on game days to help reduce waste!
