My brother-in-law insists on taking his 9-month old daughter to SEC football games. The basic problem is that he and his wife have only two tickets and are too lazy to find baby-sitters. All the rest of us believe that one of them should stay home with the baby, but their solution is to buy an extra ticket outside the stadium for the baby and squeeze in.

As a music teacher, I am always concerned about people's hearing, and I feel in my gut that this cannot be good for a baby's ears. SEC games are always monumentally loud.

Does anyone know? Is this bad for a baby's ears?
