    Best place to sit with kids?

    I have not been able to make it to a game the last 2 years but I plan on coming out a few times this year and I want to bring my 8 year old son. I will be the first to admit I was a bit lets say enthusiastic in my youth but times have changed. I still scream myself horse every Sunday but I use a filter a bit now (at least I try, you have seen the Bills the last 8 years).

    Anyway, which is the best section to bring a kid?

    Thanks for any input.

    The more expensive the ticket the better place it will be for a kid.

            +1 on your couch, unless you take them to a pre-season. No one at the games uses a filter.

                I do think there is a family section or the 50 yard line would be fine.

                  There's a block of sections in the corner of the tunnel end that's designated as the "Time Warner Family Zone" or something. Alcohol/profanity free or so I'm told. It's the direct opposite of the Rockpile so you're as far away from the lunatics as humanly possible.

                  I think it' Sections 225-227 on this map:



                  Only sat there once in High School with a group of my friends. We were too drunk to cause any trouble.

                    Yeah I sat in the family section for a lot of the last two years (I can't get a beer anyways so why not get the cheap seats) and its usually pretty under control.

                    My first game was when I was 7... in the end zone. That was a whole new world. I ate it all up.

                    But really from what I've seen, if somebody is sitting near a kid they usually tone it down to a reasonable human level. Most of the time.

                      I concur on the couch idea. The stadium is no place for an 8-year old, no matter how much you want to be the cool dad and take him to a game. I would say wait a few years and take him when he is like 20.

                              Yeah, subjecting your 8 year old kid to a bunch of loud mouthed vulgar drunken ******s is great parenting.

                              Obviously, this isn't everyone who goes to the Ralph, but there are plenty like that.
