Tell him to toe one in the endzone. Back endzone, 1 foot tap, then pump up the student section after.

Who and why would someone downvote this?
This is an awesome thing for you and your kid to experience. Truly a once in a lifetime moment.

This was better than I expected, mostly because of weather holding out and not very crowded, so the breezeways were accessible.

But my kids team got their first and only win of the season, and my son caught an int that basically iced the game (they are 6y/o, their stat sheet is quite thin)), which I don’t see because I was looking for his brother that was dicking around in the breezeways that were surprisingly all accessible.

Cool Tiger Stadium experience.

Yep 1977 high school playoffs were played at Old Box. Faced Frank Wills from De La salle throwing 90+ semifinals. Will never ever forget the sound that ball made whizzing by. Cherish the memories

It was a very cool experience and though my son’s team lost, they made it very competitive. My son grabbed four flags of the other team, broke loose for two long gains, and caught two more passes for very short gains. He also caught a pretty short side option pass but accidentally stepped out of bounds immediately, stopping the play, which caused an audible groan in the west side stands . It was a blast and I even got to throw the ball on the field with my son after his game was over. My dreams of playing QB in Tiger Stadium came true as I threw a 25 yard pass to him and then he threw a pass to me while I was in the north end zone. If Katy Perry is an astronaut, I played quarterback AND caught a touchdown pass in Tiger Stadium .

Get to see my last name on a uniform in Tiger Stadium this year as well. He’s not starting, but he’ll get to warm up on the field.

AOver 50 years ago at about the same age (10) I stood on the sidelines of Tiger Stadium for a LSU night game (courtesy of Coach Cholly Mac, who my dad had gone to school with at UK) and the hook was set in me for life as a P&G fan.

Congrats and good luck to y’all!
