    That’s awesome man. I took my boy last year with my dad for his first game. Hopefully one day we can return to glory so they can feel the pride we once had. Sunday was a step in that direction maybe.

    Great video, thanks for sharing! The way your son stops when he first sees the field is amazing.

    That's awesome. My son's first game was in Pittsburgh when Duck Hodges was playing against the Browns (same year Garret hit Mason in the head, so it was kind of a revenge game). Even though Ben wasn't able to play, and Mason was out, it was a sweet victory and a great first game for him.

    No

    We avoid night games

    Too many drunks trying to get into and out of parking and I don’t see well at night

    I swap tickets with the guy who sits next to me

    I yelled bad words after the game when they showed it was scheduled at night

    Fantastic! I got to have a similar experience with my youngest. We both went to our first and only NFL game to watch the Steelers play in St. Louis vs the Rams. I spent most of the game watching him take it in. Great memories.

    That's awesome, Wreck. What a great experience and a memory he'll cherish for the rest of his life. Thanks for sharing with us :drinks:

    I believe the laws of fandom require you both to go to the game until we lose.

    Cool! I don't get to watch with the boys because games come on @0200 or 0300 for the the most part or are during the school day where we live.
