Looking for cheap ticket for 5 yr old for Wake game

Our 5 year old may or may not make it through her first home game (which is why we didn't buy her a season ticket), so we are looking for a cheap ticket to allow her to sit in Dad's lap for a little bit for the Wake Forest game. I wish 5 & under did not require a ticket due to their unpredictable attention span! Please text me at 5019403424 if you have any suggestions. Thank you

I have a couple of free upper deck tickets. You’re welcome to them if you send me your email.

Now that’s a true Tiger. Reminds me back in the 80s older tiger fans would just give them to you. I have walked towards the hill and handed out my extras through the fence remembering those times.

Now you would have to pass your cell phone through the fence to help out a young Tiger.
Kind of requires a much larger commitment these days.
Like you, I have been on both ends of the "tickets through the fence" exchange and it's a shame that kids and their parents won't get to enjoy that excitement anymore.

So I'll be the A-hole to point out

that maybe you should just not bring the 5 year old if she does not have her own dedicated seat beside you. The idea of bringing kids to a game and jamming them on your lap in stands that are already crowded is rude to the other people around you who have paid for a dedicated space via their seats.
Trying to cram two human beings (even with one being a 5 year old) in the space of one Clemson seat is going to create a problem no matter how much you think it won't. Kids will be kids and it is inevitable that a child sitting on your lap will eventually overlap into other peoples "space" - either the people beside you or the people below you. Unless you are completely surrounded by family (beside and below) who will tolerate this uncomfortable situation - just don't do this.

I was about to post the same thing. Can’t stand people that think it’s ok to squeeze other people out of their seats…

Great point guys!
I think Clemson should definitely start charging full price tickets all the way down to infants like scar does.
That's really the way to bring a family atmosphere to your stadium and fan base!
While we're at it, let's just ban kids from games.
Have a show a valid driver's license to get in.
I would hate for anybody to touch your elbow while you are busy screaming at the coaches and players during the games.

Your sarcasim needs some work...

I guess you have never had a kid repeatedly kick you in the head and back during a game because they can't sit still on their parents lap. I have... but I don't blame the kid - young children have a hard time sitting still for 5 minutes much less a whole game (kids just do what kids do). But I do blame the parents for not obeying the rules and having a dedicated seat for their children that are over the age of 2.
By the way - creating a family atmosphere is more than just catering to children. It includes being respectful of other people and their game day experience as well. Intentionally jamming two humans into one seat, whether it be with an additional adult or a child over 2, is not adding to the family atmosphere - it is being disrespectful to the other families around you.

You choose to be grumpy about it.
I've had plenty of kids kick me and spill my drinks and numerous other things.
I'm happy when people bring kids to games. I remember being a young kid in Clemson games.
I've also seen the amazing joy it has brought to my own children. As noted below, my wife and I almost always elect for the standing room area in the West Endzone when we bring our children to games because it helps the kids enjoy the game more because they have room to move.
The only time I get unhappy is if the kids are clearly having a terrible time and behaving in a way that displays their discontent and the parents do nothing to remove their child from the situation.

Wherever you get the ticket for your daughter, you may want to consider heading to the West Endzone to watch the game.
There are standing room only sections behind the wheel chair seating.
It's a great place for a young kid to watch the game because she will be able to see while you are holding her and when she gets stir crazy you or your wife can take her back to the Oculus area to get the wiggles out for a few minutes during down time of the game.
My wife and I started taking our daughter to that area when she was under 2 and it's so much more relaxing than trying to worry about keeping her from bothering the people around you in the common seating areas.
