North endzone is the most fun, just keep the youngins away from the students in the upper sections...they can get stupid and crazy.
I'm not sure I would direct you to the NEZ with a 4-year-old.

Yea, I think I'm going to try as far away as student section as possible. Don't want him running into me 12 yrs ago.

I took my little boy last year to the Tennessee game, his first game. Don't get there too early and go by Mike's cage. Just keep him moving! We sat near the field on the 45 yard line with a bunch of old people and that worked out fine. I did not think immersing him in the student section would have been a good idea for lots of obvious reasons. He still can't figure out why or how we won that game since we were in the tunnel leaving with a loss and won by the time we got in out of the stadium. I just told him, that's the way we roll. Have fun!

Agreed.
North end zone or anywhere near student section is a bad, bad idea if you want a 4 year old to maintain some level of innocence.
I started going to LSU games with my dad when I was about 5 or 6 (circa 1981,1982). We sat in the upper part of the south end zone where cheers end with "L-S-U" instead of "Kick their arse!"
Granted, I love the north end zone or student section so long as I don't have kids with me. It is the party zone. But it's not the kid friendliest party at Tiger Stadium.
East sideline is probably your best bet (away from student section).
As a general rule, people who pay more for tickets tend to be older and more mature. If you get cheap seats, expect more drunken assholes who are gonna say things you might not want your kid repeating.
Last weekend, I took my 19 month old daughter to the 1st half of the local high school game. That was a perfect intro to football for her. She got to hear the band up close (mere feet away) and we got to walk down on the track and see a touchdown scored mere feet away from us. I highly recommend taking your toddler to a high school game before you even think about going to Tiger Stadium. It's a good way to see how well they pay attention to the game and gauge how well they can sit still.
Good luck and Geaux Tigers!
