Take your daughter. It will be fun.

Make sure she has the Baylon Brees earmuffs, but she will enjoy being with her mom and dad.

This. Be involved as a family as much as you can. Also she'll never learn how to act in crowded areas if you never take her.

I mean, sure, but you don't have to start things off by throwing her into the deep end and telling her to swim or drown.

3+ hours of trying to keep a kid that young in one spot in a crowded and loud place, plus difficulty in finding a place to change diapers....most likely outcome is that bringing a baby to the game is going to prevent you from enjoying the game and possibly ruin experience for people sitting next to you if the baby is crying the whole time

My old man started bringing me to Alex box and death valley at 2. Have sunscreen and some heavy duty ear muffs and youll be good.

Babysitting my belligerent SO during a game is about the same as a 16month old

I wish I could downvote you 1000 times.

No, you shouldn't bring a 16 month old to a game.

No, you shouldn't bring a 16 month old to a theater.

No, you shouldn't bring a 16 month old to a restaurant.

Get a babysitter or stay home unitl they are 5 years old.

You should have thought of this shite before you had a kid.

My son went with me for his very first game at 15 months. He absolutely loved it, I think there was so much for him to look at and see. We went and visited the band and he got pics with the golden girls. This was, of course, for cupcakier games--obviously I wouldn't take him to Bama.

He was two last year and I took him to 4 games, two of them in the suites. He is diehard. Watches the game from beginning to end, and definitely tailgates harder than any of us.

This year he's gone to two and he & I are going tomorrow. He's three years old and has been reminding me that he gets to go to LSU game for Florida Gators.

In essence, it just depends. My kid absolutely loves it--enjoying the festivities, music, and general atmosphere. But it scares some kids, or overwhelms them at a minimum.

ETA: IM ALWAYS prepared to leave on a whim if he's not behaving or enjoying it. The first game (15 months) we left at halftime. But he's usually wanting to stay when I'm ready to leave.

If you sat next to me and I had to deal with your kid crying and being annoying, I would punt the hell out of that kid over the stadium

You wouldn't do shite. You'd sit there and mumble to yourself.

You would definitely not touch someone else's child.


I want to add that you should definitely leave if your kid isn't having it. Don't make it miserable for others. I would never try to stay if he wasn't behaving or enjoying the experience.

Took my oldest to his first game, which was against UF, and when he was 10 months. He's four now and has been to 6-7 games including an away game. It's never been a problem. Plenty going on to keep their attention. Spending the day tailgating and going to a game with my kids is one of my favorite things.

Go for it. I think it would be a trip to hear a 16 month old warble "Suck that tiger dick, bitch!"

Leave her in the car. It's only three hours.


Will the game be on CBS? If so, probably closer to six hours.

Just left dinner with my wife and 2 month old. It's not hard to do and be cordial to others.

If I owned a restaurant I would ban kids under 5.
