My wife and I just found out we are having a little boy come December! It's our first child and to say I'm excited is an understatement!! Since the baby reveal party isn't for a few weeks, I just had to tell someone. So I am telling all of you! Other good news...University of Memphis just offered me a job, so I am moving back to Memphis! I have been working in the Nashville area for the last 2 years. I am excited to be moving back home and working for my Alma mater.

Just for future reference, until what age can a child go to a Memphis football & basketball games until they need a ticket? I've been a football and basketball season ticket holder for many years, looking forward to taking little dude next year to games!

Go Tigers!!

Congratulations! But prepare yourself now to exist on almost no quality sleep. :) The best of luck to all three of you.

Definitely get a pee pee tee pee

Congratulations!

In December, your life will change forever, and for the better I might add.

Congratulations! BTW - a boy? How tall are you?

Happy, Happy news! Congratulations!

What news! Be prepared for sleep deprivation experiment. I mean that in a good way.

Congrats! I'm not sure exactly what age a child has to be to need a ticket... I know that I bought my daughter a ticket last year when she was five. I'm fairly certain I didn't pay when she was three, but I'm unsure about four-year-olds.

Either way, you have a while.

Congratulations! To answer your question, at basketball games they require a ticket at age 3. I believe it's either 3 or 4 for football....but depending on how small your child is, no one will question you.

Awesome news, and glad to have all three of you to Memphis

Can he ball?

If he can, UMTigers05 may be able to leverage a new job out of it.

For sure! I use to intern for the Athletic department several years ago, during my undergrad. I still have a few contacts there! ha.

When were you there? I was the IT guy in Athletics from 2001 - 2004.

My wife and I just would pick our sons up as we went into fedex forum and never had a problem. They were at least three, of course it helped that our boys were on the small side. We stopped the last few years of the Cal days. Size is a big factor though not so much age. We never had a problem.

Oh and congrats!

you sleep when THEY sleep. Best hint you ever just got

Good news is, most babies mostly sleep for the first few weeks. Makes it a little lower impact on the parents. They don't sleep for long stretches but they sleep a lot. At least mine did.

Congrats! Our boy recently turned one. It's amazing watching them grow and figure things out.

Also congrats on the job at the UofM! I spent 9 years working there (and years before working as a student) before we moved away from Memphis. It's a great place to work.
