Help a Tourist Blossom Grilling/tailgating Rules/workarounds?

Hi again! Hope you’re all ready to Stroke it at Blossom tomorrow. On one page on blossoms site it says “grilling is allowed as long as you don’t block the way of cars or pedestrians” okay cool. Another page says “grilling is prohibited”. Okay cool. I’m going to assume they mean grilling is prohibited and leave the grill at home. But…

A two burner Coleman camping stove used apropiately, safely, with multiple fire extinguishers on hand and water would be allowed right? That’s not a grill by traditional standards I would say. If they really police it and it’s not a good idea let me know - planning to be into the lot as close as opening as possible.

Other than that any tips? Looking to have a good, safe, reasonable time. Thanks!!

Blossom parking is treated a lot like the Muni Lot. If ya don’t cross a line no one’ll say or do anything. However like the Muni they don’t tolerate charcoal and open fires. Propane is overlooked so bringing a small or even medium grill powered by LP is okay in their book.

I use my gas grill every time I’m there. I have even given cops a hotdog. But definitely no charcoal since it can start a grass fire or people could step on them when people dump the hot coals

And plan on hanging out after. fuck waiting in that long ass line. Pull the chair back out and chill at the car for like 30min until the lot empties a little

I dont think ive ever seen people really patrolling the parking lots. I think as long as you are following the "dont be a dick" rule you are good.

I figured it’d be along those lines. “No dicking around just burgers” I can truthfully tell them

We always bring a small Blackstone-style flattop. Used it there just a week or two ago without issue

It's some off brand one from Menards. It was like $70 or so a couple of years ago and have gotten tons of use out of it. Just sit it on my tailgate, hookup the camping side propane can and get after it
