Tailgating season is back- and unfortunately, so are the long gate lines.
For many fans, tailgating is the highlight of football season. The sizzle of hot dogs on the grill,
ACDC’s “Thunderstruck” blasting from speakers, and a sea of team colors flooding the streets—it’s all part of the experience. But nothing kills the vibe faster than having to cut the fun short just to beat the queues at the entrance.
That’s where WaitTime comes in. We believe fans shouldn’t have to choose between enjoying their tailgate and making it to kickoff on time.

WaitTime’s state-of-the-art, patented artificial intelligence excels at counting high volumes of foot traffic, empowering venues to monitor crowd density, flow, and queue lengths at gates.
By providing actionable insights, venues can reduce wait times, optimize staff
allocation, and elevate the guest experience.
When venues have long and uncontrolled lines, they face a potential revenue risk of up to $1 million. Through leveraging WaitTime’s queue algorithm, venues have been able to reduce gate entry times by up to 75% and avoid this risk.
