Would you take your child to a Bengals game?

[mexitucky]

This has nothing to do with Randy Reed. This has to do with what I observed Sunday at the Bengals game. The way that people behave, speak, and threaten on the way to the stadium, in the stadium, and on the way out of the stadium is a joke. Until the Bengals institute a "No stupid hillbillies allowed," policy, I can't see any reason to feel comfortable taking a child to a Bengals game unless I have club seats. How sad is that?

You'll find customers, at any sporting venue, in any state which are less than tactful, regardless of what geographical location, they are from.

I would.

How old?

 

I don't think that I'd have a problem taking my child to a game...

Although I agree to an extent, this is sadly at every NFL season. Almost all sporting events are a big drunken party where people have an excuse to act like idiots. Like it or not, it's how it is.

Especially football games.

The level of alcohol is just awful, but you will find that inside any professional sporting events. That's why I prefer college events. While the drinking still happens the distribution doesn't.

My son has sat in the left field bleachers with us at Wrigley. I don't see how a Bengals game could be much worse.

How old are your children? My boys are 7. There is no way that I could have them sit where I did on Sunday and be comfortable.

I've been to Wrigley as well. Bengals games are worse, much worse.

Depends on where the seats are. No way on the end zone but the club and most of the upper level would be OK. The upper level is so steep most drunks are careful or they end up falling on their head.

Club level was terrific for my 14yo and myself this weekend. Not a problem at all. However, any younger and he wouldn't have been with me. At least now if there was a fracas he is big enough to get out of the way. I had terrific seats this weekend there, club level, 1st row. Best seats in the house IMO.:thumb:

I would think that 10-11 would be the minimum age. Right around 5th grade.

I wouldn't this year anyway, might traumatize him for life!

I took mine to Riverfront, but can't say that I would take them to PBS
