Tailgating
There are several areas to tailgate in at State Farm Stadium. However, there are a few areas that are more sought after than others. The F lot is one of the most sought after locations, since it is a grass lot with plenty of bathrooms. The "Great Lawn" is also a premier location, is located on the west side of the stadium.
Family Sections
Sections 114, 424 and 432 are Family Sections; no alcohol is permitted in these sections.
Club Level
The Club Level at State Farm Stadium is located in the 200 level, which wraps around the majority of the stadium, expect for the end zones. The crowd in the club level is much more sedated than the fans in the upper and lower levels, but there a several amenities included in the Club Seats. These amenities include wider and more padded seats, less crowded restrooms, separate entrance, and access to higher quality food and drink options. As one Cardinals fan put it, "If you are going to the game to be a fan, skip the club level...if you are going to watch the game as a spectator, club is the way to go."
Best Seats
In my opinion, whether you sit on the Home bench (section 104 to 112) or the Visitor’s bench (section 126 to 134) doesn’t matter all that much. Obviously some of the best seats are sections 128, 129, 130 & 107, 108 and 109. Putting aside the so-close-to-the-players-I-can-smell-them factor, the best seats would definitely be between rows 10 and 20. When sitting at or near the 50 yard line, elevation is important for viewing all the action. When looking to buy tickets in any of the 100s sections the first row seats are only desired for the experience, not for the view. Being in the first row of a section in the end zone can be great for the occasional touchdown, but this perk will also have it’s cons when the ball is on the opposite side. This comes down to personal preference, but I think it’s safe to say for the 100s sections on the sidelines most of the time you want seats higher then the 10th row.
