Not trolling in the slightest. Help me understand the awful damage that kids do
to game day atmospheres.

Is it because they are taking the seat in an unfilled stadium from someone who would only attend if they could have a better seat?

Is it because the babies are crying and you can't hear the screaming crowd like you'd like to? So should I stop giving tickets to the married students in my ward just so you don't have to hear a baby cry?

Heaven forbid that some people are actually that poor that they can't afford babysitting. Yes, it's possible. Entitled rich people don't understand what it's like to be poor. If someone gives you tickets, you take that baby and go!

After living in and out of Utah, I've found that many Utah natives have no clue what it's like to not have endless amounts of family and long time friends nearby to help watch your kids or constantly hang out with. How about the people who've just moved into your neighborhood who aren't from Utah. Do you expect them to just start calling people in the neighborhood to watch their kids? Doesn't work that way in the rest of the world.

In the end, I guess the only consolation I can give is that I'm not going to give you any trouble on game day. I can promise I won't bring any kids. But I fully support anyone who does
