I don't have an answer to your question, but have to say that this has been a bucket list item for me as well. I have a coworker who attends every year and my only advice is to be prepared for some damn nasty weather, as it is often cold as hell and raining that time of year.

Twice. Try to get in town a few days before the game, lots of parties put on by both services and Philly is a fun town for that.
If you are ex Army or Navy you meet lots of vets, some units have reunions there. Lot of fun and the games are always close.

This has nothing to do with LSU. WRONG BOARD. MOVE IT.

We went last year in the snow storm and it was the single greatest sporting event I’ve been to and there isn’t a close second. Made a bunch of friends in the parking lot tailgating making Irish coffees for everyone and playing Cajun music very loudly

Why so aggressive? It’s not that big of a deal

I went last year. Single greatest moment I have ever experienced at a sporting event was the National Anthem at the Army/ Navy game last year.

Been to many...probably 8-10.
Nothing quite like Iike it.
Prefer the game in Philly...vs some of the other venues over the years.
Though...if they ever have it at The Rose Bowl again, that is one that I will not miss.
Getting tickets will be your biggest challenge.

Have the Program from the Game my dad attended, in Uniform, while he was in the Army; 1946, iIrc.
Want to go, once, too.
Just have to get my Uniform in order; Army Medals on an Air Force Uniform will look kinda strange.
Maybe I'll just wear an Army Uniform? Although, technically, I'm retired Air Force.

I've been twice: once in Philly and once in Baltimore. I preferred Baltimore because the stadium was more centrally located but Philly was a good time as well. Stay near Rittenhouse Square or in old town if you can. Northern Liberties also has some good bars and restaurants.
