| Psychopath Registered: Jan. 02  | OK, I'm going to try to stay calm as I type this, but it's not going to be easy...I have just read a story on CNN.com (no, it's not AP, but usually just as reliable) and I came across something that disturbed me greatly...quote: Disallowing people from having cameras and noise-makers is understandable, but to deny football fans the right to possess foam fingers and hands crosses the line. This is an infringement upon our basic rights! What happened to freedom of speech??? Nothing says "We're #1!!!" like a foam finger, NOTHING!!! I, for one, will be writing my congressmen, representatives and also the ACLU...Just think of the poor fellow whose family will go hungry this weekend because Daddy wasn't allowed to sell foam fingers...I think a protest should be organized... Kindest Regards, Your Name | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | The second you go through those turnstiles, you're on private property, you check your rights at the door. I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands Over The Limit | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Sep. 01 | I'd give up all those things to go to a Super Bowl some day. Most of those security measures seem as unnecessary as strong cockpit doors and airport security did before 9-11. But since then the philosophy is 'better safe than sorry.'  Honor our heroes. Honor their wishes. GodBlessAmerica. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | not to be too paranoid, but what if someone snuck a gun inside one of those stupid fingers..... It IS private property - they set the rules. some teams/sports are more understanding than others. Giant Stadium won't even let you bring in a plastic 16 oz water bottle; At Shea they used to let you bring in most anything if, as long as it wasn't a glass bottle. After 9/11 shea security had to check everything, but they were still pretty good/understanding on most items. It's their house, their rules. deal with it.  | ||||
