How young was your child for their first LSU football game?

Looking for advice.
My son will be 6 months soon. I want to bring him to his first game this year, just to say we did. Don’t plan on it until the weather cools down, so mid-late October, then he’ll be about 8 months. Also, plan on using earplugs/headset for noise and not staying very long. Have to teach him young at beating the traffic. Probably won’t tailgate, just drive up near game time.
Is this too soon?
Is it still free admission for young children?
I’m aware he won’t remember it, but I will, and I’m sure I’ll capture the moment with a photo. My main concern is his well being, so I appreciate any advice from LSU dads

So your wife convinced you to do this so she could post it on Facebook

At LSU?
If it breathes it needs a ticket. Been that way for a pretty long time.Posted on 8/21/23 at 11:55 am to LSUcajun77

My daughter was four, but probably a few weeks from five her first game.

Daughter was 3 and really enjoyed it. She lasted until sometime in the 3rd quarter. I can’t see them getting anything out of it before that age.

I was 8 months old when I went to my first game. Don’t remember it but my parents talk about it all the time

4 years old is about right, but don’t expect to stay longer than halftime.

Every person regardless of age needs a ticket for football, so he'll need a ticket for you to hold him in your lap.
My daughter was almost three and we left at the end of the 1st quarter as the pre-game fireworks (seats in south endzone) scared her so entire first quarter she kept saying she needed to potty.
Took my daughter (7 now) and son (5) this past season and it was a BLAST. They enjoyed the whole game.
Think of this too, at least as of last season, bathrooms in Tiger Stadium and trying to change diapers for a 6 month old.

First game was 7 months old. Spring game at 2 months.

Old enough to understand football and follow the game. Wouldn’t even think of bringing a child that young to Tiger Stadium. Ridiculously selfish.

3 months old for my son. Took my daughter to Lambeau in 2016 at three months, but she stayed at the hotel for the game due to it being during the day.
It was very memorable. You explained your outlook on the situation which basically says you don't care if things go South and you have to bail, your day will not be ruined because of the bonding moment you had. That speaks volumes.
Do it. You already accepted that you wont be at the game long and will bail if the baby is miserable.
Just make sure you find where the family restrooms are, and plan with all the toiletries/formula needed. There are a couple in the South club, but I don't know if it is in the lower bowl.

I was about year and 3-4 months old when I went to my first game. Oregon State in 2004, been in love ever since

Too soon Too young

3 months (last szn) born in June went to home opener
admission is not free for them (I hear pretty soon they'll require tix for babies in the womb)
bring a kangaroo pouch carrier
cover his ears with muffs
that being said we were in the club, if it was in the stands we would not have brought her that young.
