Bringing the young fella to Croke Park

555

Howdy. I'm heading to the match on Saturday and was thinking about bringing the young fella. Now ignoring the fact that he's only four and a half and might be a bit of a handful to amuse for the duration of the match, do you guys know if I'd be allowed to "lift him over the stiles" just like my Dad did when I was a kid?

Thanks a million,

Thanks guys. If I had a ticket for him would he be allowed in (i.e. is there a minimum age requirement)?

That would probably be ok.

Tbh, It might be a little bit intimidating for a young child.

You're probably right - it would be fun for all of about 5 minutes :-)

Thanks,

Brougt my eldest (11) to the dubs in Parnell and Augrim for league games and no probs.

But have to agree that croker would be a different story

The noise might be a bit much for him.

My uncle got my cousin in ''over the stiles'' to a big Dublin match not so long ago. I'd say she was about 4 too.

Depends where your ticket is for, I'd say. If you're going to the Hill, ie the terrace, then maybe. But if you've got a seat, where is the kid going to go? Those seats ain't big enough for two.

I've paid 65 euro for my seat. If you were beside me, I don't think I'd appreciate a four year old wedged between the two of us. Not that I've anything against kids but there's a time and place.

the Hill is seated this saturday as well, as far as I know, thanks to the soccer friendly.
