Starkville firefighters Taurus Young, left, and Zalen Brown enjoy a citywide tailgate on Friday outside the ERA Town and Campus Realty building at 111 W. Main St. Forty businesses joined the tailgate to celebrate Mississippi State University’s homecoming weekend. In addition to tailgating and offering free food, shops also offered discounts and prizes to eventgoers. The tailgate was last held in 2019 but was canceled the following two years due to COVID-19.
