I would add:
More trash bags, just in case.
Triple Sec and Salt for the margaritas.
Beads, you must have beads.

You might have some trouble getting everything in two coolers with all that ice. If there is a Sonic Drive-In near, they sell the bags of ice for $0.99 and its the small crushed ice cubes!

Also, take some more water for the keg tub. If you put some salt water down in the tub, it will keep it colder longer. Same goes for the coolers, but it gets to be a mess in a cooler.
I never leave home without at least 4 lbs. of beads..
But do you have an offical bead holder?

I'm sure I must be missing something but isn't that what your neck is for?

It is a joke, my 6 year old grandson wants to see Jimmy and I have a picture of him wearing about 100 strands of beads, therefore, he is Grandpa's offical bead holder. :lol:

I've noticed a complete lack of Rum on the shopping list, definately an oversight.

lol funny to see this.

We go to see next months show in VA and were starting our list last night. It's a big deal to me to decorate the vehicle as well and I learned some lessons from last years decorations.

I'm praying for good weather! Your lists look comprehensive!

I'm glad somebody remembered to mention the monkeys on a stick. I was starting to wonder where all the true tailgaters were? But I knew I could count on the Balcony Girls! :P
