Long story short, 85 year old Grandfather (no pics) is doing fine but when he dies wants me to promise to spread his ashes at mid field. He is being cremated and has not told anyone else. Thoughts?

100% agreed, but what would the charge be?

Do it. Just know that if you’re caught sneaking a bag of gray/white-ish powder into tiger stadium, you should simply say it’s cocaine. Way less weird.

Do it and don’t ask permission.

Just carry them in your pocket to each game and wait for the next time we rush the field.

Don't they shop vac the ashes up? The ashes would kill the grass. Does your grandfather have another place around campus that he likes. Like a place you always tailgated?

I’m not sure if it is legal to spread ashes just anywhere.

Just looked it up and here is what I found:
It isn’t legal to scatter your loved one’s cremains in a sports stadium. Many stadiums don’t have an official policy on found cremation ashes. In all likelihood, they will end up in the garbage. And you will get a monetary fine and community service.

my wife has spread ashes of her parents over quite a few cool parts of the world, you don't have to dump the entire bag out at once, that said it would have been much easier to do a few years ago before they tightened up security, use your imagination

Take the stadium tour. When you get to the field, tell the guide it's always been a dream of yours to stand at midfield. Of course, you will have a hole in your pocket and the bag of ashes, which will conveniently fall as you walk the line.

Sounds like a night drone mission to me.

Someone has watched "Shawshank" a few times.

Do it!

He didn't say to do it during a game.

Schedule one of those tours, or participate in the Tiger Stadium marathon or the golf event they hold there. Get close to midfield, say your goodbyes and be discrete.

I feel like you made this up. No way grown adults care about football this much

Only takes a spoonful to grant his wish.

Could even cut open a corner on a pocket and dribble your grandfather down your pants leg unbeknownst to anyone else.
