Offbeat: The Gameday Episode

Football season is in full swing, and whether the Terps win or lose, Maryland fans make the most of the gameday experience. From the first stirrings of a morning tailgate to the last strains of the marching band at the end of a game, the sights, sounds and smells of football are familiar to the Maryland faithful. But what about all the work that goes on behind the scenes to make it happen? Have you ever thought of how many people it takes to run concessions? Or to keep that giant video board going? This month we’re pulling back the curtain on gameday to answer all your burning questions. Offbeat assistant editor Kimi Fleming will be your guide for the day. And later in the episode, she’ll talk with some Maryland fans to test how much they really know about their favorite team.
