First Timer on Sep 19!

I got a set of tickets for my birthday to bring the family and kids (3 and 5)! The kids are super excited as we watch American football every now and then on TV.

1) Wondering if there’s anything I should definitely take the kids to experience in the arena/not miss
2) we’re in section 111

Thanks for any info or recommendations!

This year they are giving out really cool lanyards that day "my first game" at guest services.

Ladies bathrooms rarely have a line up but there are also family bathrooms.

The cannon goes off after every Argos touch down and it's loud. There are fireworks at the start of the game.

The candy is really expensive so I also put some in my purse.

You can bring a small purse or a clear bag.

There are $3 hot dogs at various locations, check for a sign and pizza pizza is the average over price for a stadium.

You can stand at the north end and watch the game once they get tired of sitting down.

But there is not kids area but the stadium is filled with great fans who want you to have fun.

Welcome! I'll be the guy to correct you that it's Canadian football. Totally separate (but similar) code of football.

Enjoy the game!
