Taking family to cowpuke game?

[sneeks]

I'm comin gfrom Los Angeles and was thinking of taking the whole family (wife, 14 yr old boy, 7 yr girl, 10 month girl) to DC to watch the game. Do you guys think its a good idea to take the baby? Also, any revommendations as to where I should stay and are there any places I should avoid taking the whole family? I went with my wife 2 yrs ago and she loved it so I want to take the whole gang. Thanks ahead of time for any suggestions.

I took my daughter (7-months old, at the time) to a Chargers game at Qualcomm and we had no problems.

Taking a child to FedEx is probably ok...but not when the Cowboys or Eagles are in town. There tends to be more fights at these games. Plus, the Cowpukes game is on 12/30 and it would probably be too cold for an infant.

My suggestion? Take your baby to the Lions game on Oct 7th. The temperature will probably be mild/pleasant...plus there won't be many Lions' fans in attendance to cause problems. And if you do go, I recommend bring one of those Baby Bijorns that strap your baby to your chest/stomach so you can have both hands free for beer and hot dogs. ;)

Well, if you're planning on going to the game when we play Dallass, it is on December 30th, so it may be a bit too cold for the baby.

Personally, I took my first daughter to a few games starting when she was only 5 months old but stopped when she was 2 y/o because she became too much trouble to keep seated and distracted me too much from watching the game.
Now, I won't take my girls to the stadium until they are teens, especially for a Dallass game, where there are lots of troublemakers. And I won't take any family members to a game againt Philly, lol.

I agree with Rich. No way on gods green earth would i take my daughter. She is 19 months old and does not like sitting around. She wants to be up and about. Plus she distracts me enough while im watching the game at home. Id recomend not bringing the baby. Plus your talking 4-5 tickets to a Dallas game. That can be quite pricey.

I don't think they charge for children under 2 y/o. However, Danny has been know to snatch whole villages worth of children and make them work his mine in India.

To be fair, he pays twice the going rate to the mine workers.

Yeah, except this is the guy they have to work under. Apparently, he's a real stickler for detail.

BTW, Danny brings this guy to DC somewhere between Halloween and Thanksgiving seemingly every year, lol.

Yes. And you only have to rip out a flaming heart once to get a point across, lol.
