STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Tottenville will host its annual football alumni tailgate prior to the Pirates’ varsity home game against John F. Kennedy on Nov. 1.
The tailgate will commence at 3 p.m., three hours prior to kickoff at the Huguenot school.
The Tottenville HS Football Alumni Association, meanwhile, will announce the program’s newest Hall of Fame class at the highly popular tailgate.
In addition to football alumni, any other alums, family members and friends are encouraged to attend the pre-game festivities, which will include food and drinks. Tottenville merchandise will be available with all proceeds benefitting the football program.
There’ll also be a 50/50.
The alumni tailgate will feature mobile refreshment trucks, including a beer truck donated by Tottenville alum Joe Calabria, who owns Moby Dick’s Bar in Sewaren, N.J., as well as Bee Bar Mobile (drinks and coffee), which is owned by Tottenville graduate Mitch Dizon.
“These alumni generously donated their services to us,’’ said alumni tailgate organizer Joe Ruggirello. “We’re hoping for a big turnout for a very big night.’’
The tailgate fee is $25.
For more information, please contact Ruggirello at 917-848-7380.
The Pirates are currently undefeated (7-0) this season. Head coach Brian Neville’s troops will visit Eagle Academy II (Friday, 4 p.m. at Boys and Girls HS in Brooklyn) this week before squaring off against the Knights on Nov. 1.
Tottenville will conclude the regular season Nov. 7 when it visits rival Curtis in St. George (6 p.m.).
