Has anyone attended a game in TS while using crutches?

Purchased tickets, NEZ lower bowl, for the Bama game a few months ago. I broke my leg this weekend and will be in this full leg cast for the next 8 weeks.

I am trying to decide if it would be worth the trouble to go to the game or should I just sell the tickets?

Go to the game. My SO did a whole season in the student section on crutches. You'll be fine.

Many of us used alcohol as a crutch to get us through the Hallman years.

I did back when I was in high school. Had a few blisters under my arm pits from all of the rubbing.

I have had a couple of instances of physical issues and still have to walk with a hiking stick. My experience has been that the fans, security, etc. were all very gracious towards me when I went. If you're up to it, go on.

If you show up in a wheel chair you will probably get on the elevators and better seats...

ETA: not necessarily a better seat, but a better location for your wheel chair haha

I have done it several times. Just make sure your buddy is walking behind going up the ramps, its easy to lose balance. Also I think you can call in to the ticket office and exchange your ticket for a handicap one (I could be wrong there, was a long time ago)

2011 in Knoxville, I had stitches all up the bottom of my foot and brother had a knee injury. We both crutched up and down hills to get to Neyland stadium. Our only breaks consisted of shotgunning the remaining beer we had. This made it a lot less miserable. People working in the stadium didn't know if we were serious or not, and actually pointed us to the wrong section to our seats.

Anyway, your armpits might be sore, but it's definitely worth it if you have the tickets. Go and have fun, totally worth it. If we win, you'd be upset if you weren't there.

I've done it before but I was younger and not in a cast, just a brace on my knee. It wasn't too bad but I can imagine life in general sucking with a full leg cast, let alone going to a game. Good luck with everything.
