Yes, tickets are easy to get. We would get them online a few months before the game - no problems.

The game atmosphere is always great. There is obviously a lot of family and veterans, but there's seemingly regular Army/Navy football fans who are no different than SEC fans. They get loud and crude. It's an interesting mix of people.

They serve alcohol at the game.

One year my buddy and I decided to walk down to closest row by the 50 yard line for the coin toss. The President was walking out and at one point we were about 20 feet away from George W Bush. So that was cool.

There's also a bunch of Army/Navy satirical commercials that the Cadets/Midshipmen make for the game. They show a few of these on TV, but at the game they show tons of them, they're constantly on the Jumbotron when the game stops. So there's that.

Just the whole atmosphere, the patriotic songs and camaraderie and the pageantry, it all makes you very proud to be an American. It's hard to explain to someone who hasn't been.
