Any advice - First time NFL game?

[Melisa1]

DH and I are going to our first NFL game this weekend in Atlanta, they are playing our favorite team (Dallas Cowboys).
Any advice on things to take or not to take in? I was planning on wearing my Cowboys Jersey - think I will get beat up?

I never bring anything so that I can walk through the express line. If you pack any type of purse/bag, they will stop you and search it.
I will carry the cheap $0.99 poncho if it looks like rain, but I carry it in my pocket. I never carry a bag.
Have fun!!!!!!!! I love going to the games!!!!!!!
Well, yesterday was an exception. It was horrible being at our Panthers game, but that is another story....................

Nah, there will be others.
Just yesterday we had a guy in a Giants jersey about 3 seats down from us. There was another Giant jersey couple two rows behind us......they were all around.
People will probably joke around with you when the Falcons score.

Ouch on the Falcons scoring!!!!!
Seriously, thanks for the info - I can't wait!

Sorry if that came across wrong. We definitely don't like the Falcons over the Cowboys!!! I didn't mean it to sound that way at all. We will be rooting for the Cowboys to win here.
I just thought I should warn you that people will probably joke around with you. As long as you joke back and keep it light, there shouldn't be a problem.

No offense at all, I thought it was funny.
I think it will be a good time and I can't wait - good luck to you as well on your Panthers!

You may want to find out what kind of seats they have, if they are old aluminum types you may want to bring some cushions, but I have no idea about that stadium, I know 3 hours on cold hard aluminum can be tough if you can just as easily bring a cushion.
