Fifty-four by one hundred and two inches is cut for a 6-foot folding table, which leaves about a foot of drop at the sides and a little more at the ends. Three to a pack is the useful number: one for the food, one for the drinks, and one still rolled up for the moment a tray of wings goes over.
Pittsburgh tailgates run deep into cold weather, and plastic is the material that takes sleet, spilled chili and a cooler dragged across it without going soft. Black and gold comes close to matching from plain stock, but close is the problem. The printed sheet is what names the team, and plain black plates under it finish the table.
