This is the first year I will get to go, anyone have some good tips for someone that has never been. Planning on bringing my two boys, they are 4 and 2. Any good advise is appreciated!

Rude comments.

I'm not sure there's anything to say other than get there really early if you want to get autographs from the more popular players. The lines will be very long for the likes of Miles, Spencer Ware, Rueben Randle, Matheiu, etc.

I want to get miles auto. I should have it already since I gave him a flag that was flown in Iraq. He was "busy" that day and could not accept it. Had to give it to his assistant. I gave him the benefit of the doubt.

I remember reading about his trip to Iraq. You were one of the soldiers there?

I got Mile's autograph in '06. Really awesome guy.

No, I have been over there 4 times and brought one back that I flew on a few missions. Emailed him and asked if he would like it and he wrote me back saying yes. Guess it was a busy day when I hand delivered it to the school.

Pretty sweet man.

Fan day is very fun, especially for the kids. I'm taking my 12 year old cousin this year so he can meet some of the players.

The best part is watching people start bitching when there's 2 minutes to go and 10 or so people in front of them that won't move.
And when the security guys take their sharpies when that guy is 3 people from the table.

So the security guys take their sharpies when the time is up?

Yeah. When the times up, the time is up. They don't mess around.

Is there anything in it for kids this young? I've got a 4 year old I could take. He loves LSU, but he doesn't know who any of the players are. Probably wouldn't even care if they are just dressed in street clothes and not their uniforms.
