It's finally football season! If you're attending an NFL football game, you have to be prepared, especially when it comes to the unpredictable outdoor elements. While you won't need and aren't allowed to bring in too much gear, it's good to come prepared. Your needs will depend on the weather and the stadium, but we've compiled a list of game-day essentials every stadium will approve.
If you can't make it to the stadium, watch your favorite team play on your device or T.V. There are several ways to stream the games, including an option with no advertising. If you are already an Amazon Prime subscriber, you get access to Thursday night football games as part of the package. If you don't have one, sign up for you Prime membership in time for game day.
