Flag Unfurling for a Home Game

We have always avoided it just because of the time commitment. Now, if they threw in breakfast...

But really, those that have gone, what do you do for the 3.5 hours? After the rehearsal, is it a lot of waiting around in a room (kind of like being an extra?), or do you get to at least pretend like you have pre-game field passes and roam the sidelines?

Most of the time is spent out on the field waiting for rehearsal. You get to see the players warming up which is cool. After rehearsal, they usually let you go back to your seats and then you have to meet back again before you are supposed to go out onto the field. I thought it has been a great experience, the only issue is the time that you have to devote to it and you will also most likely miss the first few minutes of the game depending where you sit. The players do run right by you during intros and there is nothing like being on the field before the game (will give you goosebumps).
