No, this happens all the time. You don't already take your kids to events with whoever the other parents are that have kids who want to go to the same event?

Dad here. I've done this numerous times with DD's friends and their mothers when they were the same as as OPs kids. It just happens due to DW's schedule sometimes. No big deal.

He he wants to sit next to you withe the kids on the ends, that would be weird. Wouldn't be weird with the kids I'm the middle.

I posted no big deal, but I missed the flirty part. Can you give examples of how he is flirty?

All totally normal.
EXCEPT your line about the dad being "flirty". None of my kids friends parents are "flirty" with me.
What are you talking about?

I fundamentally do not understand what the issue would be here.

Is it weird for two parents to take their respective kids to an event together? No, not in the slightest.

I don't see why it's weird. I've done this multiple times - DS has one friend with a single dad, another with a divorced dad, various times that one parent or the other joins and we may not even know in advance.

No, not weird. I've done this sort of thing too.

Also, do you think this dad likes you? Then it's either:
a-your mind is in the gutter and that's crossing the line
b-you have an active imagination for no good reason, or
c-it's no big deal and his wife doesn't care.
And we have no way of knowing what the answer is.

Yes my husband was totally aware as l as the wives.

Are you into sports or would it just be supervising your kid? If you want to go, tell your husband the guy asked if you're going, even though he knows DH can't go. See if DH cares. If he doesn't, and you don't think it would be a drag, then go if your kid really wants to go. If it's not your thing, and your kid doesn't care, then beg off. If it's not your thing and your kid wants to go, do you trust the dad enough to take your kid without you there, and is your kid mature enough to go without you? (why are you outsourcing this type of thought process to dcum?)

its not weird if you are an actual adult

I've done that a few times. It's fine. I went to the movies with one dad, and a workplace kids' event with another. No issues. Their wives were aware, of course, as was my husband.

My 9 year old son has a good friend who wants to go to a specific sports event with him. This other kid's dad asked me if we would go with them to this game after I told him my husband will not be available to go. Is it weird for me and my kid to go to this game with the dad and his kid? I know the guy's wife but am not close with her and I don't want her to feel off about this. The guy can be a bit flirty sometimes, but nothing over the top. I don't want anyone to get the wrong impression here.
