But did you know the American Tailgating Association (yes, that's a real thing) claims the first tailgate happened at a Civil War battle? Or that others contend the pastime dates back to the French Revolution? In this episode, we're diving shoulderpads deep into the long, booze-addled history of the tailgate. When did tailgating become so closely associated with American football? Were Green Bay Packers fans the first to officially coin the term "tailgate?" Which set of college football fans take their tailgates to the most extreme levels? (looking your way, "Nittanyville.") Host Janae Price covers all this and more, in just under six minutes.
Did you know the history of the sex toy dates back millions of years? Or that McDonald's McRib drew inspiration from the U.S. military?

In History of… Thrillist is taking you through a rapid-fire crash course on some of humankind's greatest innovations in food, drink, travel, and fun. Hey, if you can keep up, you actually might learn something!
