Hi I just joined this site for my husband cause I am surprsing him and got a pass for this Sunday! We have never been and I was wondering some tips on what I can bring and what we should do! I was going to create my own post but I have to have 25 pts. (weak) to do so.......
I was thinking cooler & chairs but not sure if like that?
Also any tips on autographs would be helpful! Help me be a "cool" wife this weekend!!!!

I'll actually give you some real advice for going to camp. It's going to be HOT. Bring some water and be prepared to be in the glaring sun for a few hours. White devils like me need about 3 bottles of sunscreen.
As far as a cooler or chairs -- I wouldn't waste your time. Training camp isn't exactly a relaxed atmosphere. Unless it's a small portable cooler, it probably won't be worth your time. Personally, I like to just bring a bottle or two of water and that's it. There's really no where to 'sit' that you'll be able to see anything -- unless you get there REALLY early.
From what I can tell, you can choose a good view of practice, or a good spot on the autograph line if you get there early. When you first come onto the field, stay a bit to the left if autographs are important to you. That's where the players pass by to enter/exit the facility for practice. If you stand there, you're sure to get some action from whatever players feel like signing things. If watching practice is more important, stay more straight or to the right.
You can still get autographs to the right, and you can still see practice from the left. However, each has its advantages.
44Deezel, just go to the skins site and print out an invitation. I don't believe they are necessary, but I do it every year to be safe. It's free and only take a moment, so worth the peace of mind.
Those of you going on Sunday, expect a big crowd. Weekends are somewhat brutal. Get there early.
