Betway Insider has released new research detailing the best stadiums for tailgating in the U.S. To find the top players (no pun intended), the website looked at multiple categories: parking prices, charcoal prices, food prices, drink prices, and how many hours a stadium is open before an event.

After analyzing these factors, Betway Insider ranked Empower Field at Mile High as the 10th-best stadium in the country for tailgating, with an overall score of 2.62 (the highest score is 5.54).

According to the website, the home of the Broncos is open five hours before an event, and the surrounding area of Denver offers reasonable prices for tailgating essentials — just over $20 for parking, nearly $10 for charcoal, around $12 for a burger, under $3 for a hotdog, and about $8 for a six-pack of alcohol.
