Apparently, per unconfirmed information from a generally reliable source (they said they saw it announced somewhere), kids under 2 will not be allowed at the ASG or Skills Competition unless they have a separate ticket.  This is different than the usual Hurricanes policy that allows kids under 2 to have free admission with a paying adult.  I have consulted my ASG tickets, and they are silent on the matter.  I also don't see anything on the Hurricanes website addressing this.  I have also not heard anything official from the organization confirming or denying this (sent an e-mail, got no response yet).  However, I wanted to warn anyone here who has an infant/toddler that they carry to Canes games that they might get turned away at the door, if they didn't purchase a separate (full price) ticket for the infant/toddler.  So if you've got a tot you planned on carrying with you, you may want to make alternate plans for said tot if this is true.  You may also want to e-mail your ticket rep to ask the ASG policy for infants/toddlers.  I hope this isn't true, and I can take my little boy with me.  If anyone has any contacts in the organization who can shed light on the matter, please post it here.  If I receive an e-mail response, I will do the same.  In any event, I just assumed the policy would be the same as any other game, and I don't want anyone to get turned away at the door for not knowing, if indeed this is true.
