So, DH had bought a really cool University of South Carolina tail-gating tent dealy and we used it at one tournament. At the next tournament, we were putting it together and one of the legs/rods that supports the tent broke. So much for that. Not one of our better days.

I think we need a new one, but he's not anxious to plop down big bucks again so soon. Anyone got any ideas where to get a good tent at a decent rate?

Watch for them to go on sale at Dick's. The little 10x10 can be had for 50 dollars. I bought mine 4 years ago. If you take care of them (anchor them) they last.

I just got an EZ up PYramid 2 from sears. It replaced one of the cheap 60 dollar ones from Dicks that didn't last 6 months. Was about 160 shipped to store but what a nice upgrade over the cheap ones,, highly recommended

Costco has their nice 10x10 marked down to $169 at most stores. Aluminum frame and heavy duty canvas. Also has side panels you can attach to block wind/sun

Thanks! We'll definitely check that out. If not there, Dick's sounds good too. Of course, it won't be a Gamecock tent like his old one, but c'est la vie.

One little tip for the Dick's tents - buy the warranty and they will essentially replace them forever. Same with their chairs.
