Get a baby sitter or sit this season out.

Show up after halftime. You'll have it all to yourself.

Baby sitter alert. Do not take a baby to Tiger Stadium. To loud and unpredictable.

Why on earth are you bringing a baby to Tiger Stadium?


Exactly.

1. The baby is not going to remember anything about the experience. In fact, the child will probably find the experience uncomfortable for many reason. Particularly if it is a day game with the heat. For instance, I had some idiot mom sitting near me at a day game last year (I think v. Tennessee) with a baby (clearly less than a 1 year) . You could tell the poor child was uncomfortable in the heat and its skin was getting red in the sun. I wanted to say to the parents...particularly the mom..."what the frick is wrong with you?" The poor child is overheating and getting sunburnt. Be an adult. Take him home."

2. If you are a remotely responsible parent, your focus will be on the needs of the child first and the game second. The child doesn't know or care he/she is at a football game. It's needs, comfort, feeding, diaper changes, etc are the only thing it is concerned with. That being the case, you're not really going to be able to pay attention to what is going on in the game to any appreciable degree or consistency. So why be there? You can just watch the game from home with the baby (likely) comfortably resting and actually watch more of the game.

I'm pretty sure the dumbasses that take babies do so SOLELY as a means of generating attention for themselves. Just like taking a puppy somewhere. The baby isn't watching the game and doesn't want to be there. So attending the game with the baby cannot be for the baby's benefit.

I get it. Sometimes you can't find a babysitter. But that's part of being a parent. There are going to be times you can't do something you might otherwise want to do because it is not in the best interests of the child.

This is a well-thought plan. Please document your adventure with video.

It is not a good idea. She will be miserable. Believe me, I'm speaking from experience, and this was at a UL game with maybe 20k in attendance.

Brought my boy last season he was close to 3 and I think that’s the perfect age. Went to a couple of the smaller games. He still talks about going back.

I will never understand people that do this. Do what's best for the baby and keep them home where they belong.

Also, I should've been clearer on this. I'm not bringing her to EVERY game. I'd like to take her to one for the obligatory photo op that isn't an ear piercing SEC game.

Go tailgating, take pics, go home, no need to take pics in the stadium. Youll prob be leaving real early, and the baby will be uncomfortable.

Buy the cheapest nose blead ticket you can get and leave the kid up there while you enjoy yourself in your good seats.

“I'm not bringing her to EVERY game. I'd like to take her to one for the obligatory photo op that isn't an ear piercing SEC game.”

That’s just child and self abuse for the gratification of a photo you can post on social media. Good God Man, show some common sense. Betting you always wanted to go first when they held Show and Tell at school.

Get a damn baby sitter or stay home. A 10 month old does not need to go to a football game. And if football is that damn important in your life you shouldn’t have kids.

Don’t bring a baby to Tiger Stadium. The hassle of having to feed and change the baby there is just not worth it. Wait till your child can walk and talk at least before bringing. They won’t remember their first time being that young.
