Buy him some peanuts and Cracker-Jacks.



No seriously, when the 'Skins roll, he will see the magic in your eyes and it will be a great memory for the rest of his life.

If you can tail gate for a while, take in the atmosphere. Bring along a football to toss. Interact with those around you. Enjoy the day, and he will too. :up:
People may not remember exactly what you did
or what you said....

~BUT~
they will ALWAYS remember how you made them feel.

Just taking him to the game is a great start! Buy him something he can wear right there on the spot and at a later date. A game day program would be nice to keep for him to look back on. It's fun to look back at a program and see the players that were playing when you were there. I'm only 30 and have a program from my first game(BUF vs MIN)and it's pretty cool. Players like Bruce Smith, Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, Andre Reed, Don Bebe etc etc all played that day. It really captures that moment in time.
Enjoy the game!
Cheers,
The Hogfather

I second the notion to break in BTP.

A stop by THN TG is a must to meet the Hogettes , I'd also say he could play catch with my son, however my son won't be there this week. After the game the players are faily accommodating with autographs
