tailgating

1) Usually found around sporting events, they involve beer drinking and BBQ from the back of a pickup truck or SUV.

2) The car that is so close to you in the rear that you can barely see it's headlights. Some people like to quickly brake to scare them off. Pretty annoying, but it's better to move to the right. Nobody likes a Left Lane Dick... unless there is no right lane. In that case, it's time for a Skid Contest.
1) Before the football game, we had a tailgate party with beers and BBQ.

2) I was driving down the sidestreet at 40 and that guy was still tailgating me. So, I 'noticed' a 'cat' on the road and slammed my brakes.

tailgate party

Parties that usually center around a group of people who tailgate to a football game (originated in the South). Once there a party, typically, with food (barbeque or grilled) and alcohol, is held in the parking lot.

Recently tailgating parties have begun to take place at other sports games, symphony performances, and nascar races all over the U.S.
"What started out with a few sandwiches and a couple of beers before the game...has evolved the tailgate party into great American sports tradition...
A group of friends can drive to any outdoor setting, park their cars and pull down the tailgates - get out the grills and prepare a feast!" --Chiff.com

compound-tailgation

<noun><verb>(to compound-tailgate)
This is when a dumbass/old person in front of you is driving slow, usually going the actual speed limit or below, and you are trying not to tailgate them, when some douchebag genious behind you thinks it a great idea to tailgate you, hoping that will make the guy in front of you go faster. This usually results in a heated exchange, such as the tap of your breaks, wave of your hand, or spraying of the windshield wipers (my personal favorite). In the end, you eternally hate the person behind you because its all their fault.
Sorry I'm late bro, I got stuck behind this old man and this douche behind me caused some serious compound-tailgation, so I had to get out of the car and slap his bitch ass.
