can anyone just go over what happens at that game? the cadets march etc, halftime, then after?? just want to coordinate with my kid so we dont spend the next hour looking for each other.

Cadets are seated in section L17 - L21. That's why they are grayed out and you can't buy tickets in those sections.
"BEST" seats is a relative term. Obviously, L22 is the "Best" Try to get a row higher in the alphabet. e.g. R, S, T, U, V, etc... I was in row "Y" and it was the perfect seat.

"BEST" seats is a relative term. Obviously, L22 is the "Best" if you want to WATCH the game. It's the 50 yard line. Hence, the most expensive tickets. (Which is still cheap compared to ALL other D1 football stadiums).
"Best" as in closest to your son/daughter, that's hard to say. If your son/daughter decides to sit in L17, then the CHEAP SEATS (L-16) near the goal line is the best.
You pretty much need to decide straight up. 1) Do you want to spend 3 hours watching the falcons play football; or 2) Do you want to spend 3 hours watching the cadets. Personally; if you can get L22 tickets. (Those are my season tickets every year), then you'll have the best seat in the house and you'll get to see a great game; all the cadets; all the pageantry; etc... Whatever you do..... DO NOT GET THE FIRST 10 ROWS!!!! Those are terrible seats. It's much more enjoyable to look slightly DOWN on the game. Plus, you get a better experience during the march on, parachuting, fly by (If they have it), and a great view of the cadets. Try to get a row higher in the alphabet. e.g. R, S, T, U, V, etc... I was in row "Y" and it was the perfect seat.
As a dedicated football fan of the World's Greatest Team, Ever, I always recommend, especially for PW, that parents buy the $5 and sit in peanut heaven.
USAFA ALWAYS wins, and there are some people who actually read the newspaper during the game.
$5. worth every penny.
I can sort of agree with the $5 method...... Sort of. Meaning; for a lot of parents/family members coming to parent's weekend, this may be their one any only time to come to the academy. Along with coming to a game. Watching the march on, wings of blue parachuting. Half time. Being next to a very excited cadet wing. (They are always excited the first game; especially compared to the november games that are in single digit temps). Anyway; the experience is something else.
I've obviously been to the academy a couple of times in my life. (Sarcasm). And I never get tired of going to a game and the atmosphere around the cadets and the festivities. I think for many, who may never come back again; (Except possibly for graduation); getting good seets next to the cadets in the L22 area; give or take a section; is an experience that shouldn't be overlooked. Just my $0.29485849309. (Inflation).
