Every piece here is rated — but read the ratings carefully
All twelve items on this shelf show a rating, which happens nowhere else in the catalog. There is a catch worth knowing: the figures are pooled across the listing family rather than gathered per school. All three 60-count napkin packs show 4.9 from 56 people; all three table covers show 4.6 from 48; all three plate packs show 4.4 from 27; both party kits show 4.8 from 49. Only the Ohio State cup carries a figure of its own, 4.4 from 35.
What a pooled rating is actually telling you
A shared score is not a useless one — it is feedback on the format. Michigan State and Auburn napkins are the same two-ply stock with a different print, so 4.9 from 56 people is a real verdict on the napkin, just not on the school. Where the formats differ the pooled scores separate cleanly: napkins at 4.9, kits at 4.8, covers at 4.6, plates and cups at 4.4. That ordering is the honest signal on this shelf.
Game day counts differently than a birthday
A tailgate runs four to six hours and food comes out in waves. Napkins go at three to four per person over that span, plates at one and a half, and cups at two. Buy the largest pack you can and treat the leftovers as next weekend’s supply — collegiate prints do not date the way a themed birthday print does.
Two kits for a first tailgate
Two of the twelve pieces are multi-item game-day kits. For someone setting up a tailgate for the first time, a kit is the shortest path to a table that matches, and the per-piece cost is close to buying the parts. For anyone who tailgates every home game, packs of the pieces you actually run out of will serve better.
