If you were given (2) tickets to the game for Saturday and didn't have anyone to keep the baby, would you bring her??


No way. People get mad when you change a diaper on the condiment tables.

I brought a 3 year old and he wouldn't even sit still past the first half. I would definitely not try to bring a baby. You'll be miserable and wish you stayed home and watched it on tv. I promise.

a. Give me the tickets
b. Sell the tickets
c. Call in a favor

I thought the same when my son was 8 months old. The Tigers were playing Northern Illinois. The noise was too much and we had to take him out 5 minutes into the first quarter. Don't do it!

No way in hell. Holding a baby, having to feed her, console her when she's crying, change a diaper, all at the opening home game at TS sounds like the most hellish of nightmare scenarios.

Not only no but frick no. I question your parenting skills and judgment for even asking such a stupid question and even considering this.

no one wants to listen to a crying baby while watching football. you know its going to cry, it gets loud. that's just as bad as having someone sit behind you that claps loudly right behind your ears, or a 13 year old girl who keeps screaming in a high pitch behind you. Dont ruin other fan's experience

speaking as someone who brought his 5 month old daughter to the va tech game in 2007, no. it was too damn hot, though she did sleep, unbelievably, through the entire 1st half, the second half was not quite as enjoyable for her. would not do again and advise against you doing it as well.

That's what wife's and grandmas are for. If your wife won't skip a game to watch her pride and joy and give you a few hour break then you might have issues.

Last year I had a 1 1/2 year out tail gaiting for the USC game. Wife and I went in the stadium and grandma stayed at the tailgate and watched him, he had a great day and loved it all but there was no reason to take him in the game.

Fwiw, the va tech game is a terrible example because that was the WORST I've ever felt at a game. It was like you needed gills.

Not a chance in hell. I wouldn't even think about it until they're 3 or 4. Even then I would probably get nose bleed seats. I'm in college and my ears ring til Monday after Saturday night games.

I'm trying to figure out this whole "put the baby's needs first" thing. Maybe my kid spoils me but he doesn't cry much and when he does I'll just go walk around. It's not like these people are dropping their kid off and picking them up after the game.

I don't plan on staying the whole time so when he's ready we're out. He's been to a baseball game as well and miraculously survived.

Is the leaving somebody to watch them at the tailgate not an option. It's worked great for us. Got to still enjoy the day with our boy. He loved the tiger band and just all that was there to look at. He was worn out from the day so sleep back at the tailgate with grandma.

It was great.

By the way it's your kid and nobody knows better what to so then you so do what you want. If you have to leave so be it.

Then pray your seats are NOT next to mine...don't want whining,crying,fidgeting and pooping right next to me...and IF you were honest, you wouldn't care for it either...not to mention potential hearing damage for your child !
You should grow up and act like a responsible parent.

Hell no. I have a 10 month old and it will be at least 3 or 4 years before I take him to a game. I want him to actually enjoy it and not be scared shitless


I mean it's fricking uab. There will be other games .

Man, y'all must have some bad kids or mine are just really good... All this talk about whining and crying and pitching a fit.. Your complaining sounds worse than my kids put together..

We aren't tailgating and don't know anyone personally who is that we would leave the baby with..

Guess I will make all of y'all happy since I'm such a bad parent and all..

Guess y'all have to miss out on the breast feeding! Your loss!!
