Had a complete knee reconstruction in high school and was at the Oregon State game three weeks later. It wasn't too bad except for the monsoon that passed through. If you have the time, I would stop by the ticket office and look into ADA seating.

Honest question: would it make sense for you to use a wheelchair for the game and get one of the handicapped seats? (Not sure if you have to buy those seats in advance or if you can somehow trade your current tix for them, maybe through the ticket office in advance?) I'm assuming you already have a temporary handicapped placard for parking; if not, your doc will hook you up with whatever you need to show the ticket office.

If you think you're physically up to it, go for it, but be realistic. I know that when I had knee surgery a few years back, the things that were the biggest pain in the arse were things that required me to be in a small-ish space where I couldn't stretch my leg out in front of me. Since you're forced to sit with your leg straight you are going to physically take up a lot of space, which always made me feel a little awkward. (Plus I was always worried about people tripping over me and hurting my knee, especially when surrounded by drunks.)

Yes. I've leaned on Jack Daniels, Johnny Walker, Jim Beam and the most interesting man in the world.

I did it for almost the whole season as a student in 2001 when i had ankle surgery and we sat underneath the scoreboard in NEZ.

Take some pain pills and go.

I'm in the same predicament with my wife, she wants to go but with a knee scooter. We plan to swap our tickets for some HCAP ones. Anyone know if you can take one of these bad boys in the stadium as well?
