BU Beats: Terrier Tailgate
The men’s and women’s soccer squads deliver tunes to get fans pumped for Sunday’s Terrier Tailgate
The 2019-2020 BU varsity athletics season officially launches on Sunday with the 13th annual Terrier Tailgate. This year’s event is a doubleheader: the BU men’s soccer team faces archrival Boston College at 4 pm, followed by the BU women’s soccer team hosting Michigan State at 7 pm.
Admission is free and gates open at 3 pm. Tailgate highlights include free food, giveaways, and prizes, and fans who check in on the Terrier Fan Zone app will be entered to win Apple AirPods, a JBL Flip 4 Speaker, and assorted gift cards. The BU Pep Band and Marching Band will perform live, along with DJ Davvid, David Sczzepankiewicz (Questrom’17).
To celebrate the beginning of the NCAA Division I soccer season and the BU athletics season, we asked the men’s and women’s soccer Terriers to put together a list of their favorite tunes for a Spotify playlist. Among the songs featured are Hardwell & Maddix’s “Bella Ciao,” played before the men’s games to pump up the team; “Losing It,” selected because it’s the favorite song of the men’s team seniors; “Shake It Off,” by Taylor Swift, which the women soccer Terriers play to get them dancing; and “Dirty Water” by the Standells, another favorite of the women’s team.
Listen to the complete playlist below.
