Pats vs Chargers

Just weaseled my neighbor's season tickets...decent seats as well.

Not bad for an 8th birthday present for my older son. I told him his mom was responsible for anything else

Awesome!

I brought Liam to a game at the end of last year. The biggest problem was the drunks. It was both worse than I recall and I believe worse than when I participated . If you can wiggle in some better parking options that do not roll you through the meat of the partying it might be good for your kid's sake. While 10% may give things a bad name, 10% of 60K people makes an impression on a kid.

As for as parking goes..I brought my son years ago and they had a family parking lot..It was close to the stadium and no drinking allowed..Maybe they still have that??

I'm going where I'm going...

I hope they give Chargers Jordan Todman some playing time. He's a local rookie. Watched him at Dartmouth high school and UCONN. JT is a running back.

Leave plenty of time. I'd plan on getting to the Stadium at least by 2 pm.
The parking lots open 4 hours ahead of game time, there will be a backup out to 495 by then.

Cool, you can teach him how to fish while you're at it

actually adding mustard to some of the paintings may improve them

I am no prude when it comes to drinking but drunks are why I stopped taking family to Yankees games at Fenway. I also was on a bus of people who really didn't know eachother going to Schaefer Stadium. On the way out some started spitting out the windows at the State Troopers directing traffic. Thats the last time I went on a bus like that to any game of any kind.

Too bad some people cannot handle drinking and doing anything else. I don't care how much they trash themselves but they should leave other people alone.

Good game Sunday though. Very exciting and of course best since we won!

Go Pats.
