Fan codes of conduct
Wednesday August 6, 2008
The NFL and its teams have created a fan code of conduct that will serve as the starting point for individual team policies. College football fans will probably tell you that this is just another reason why our game is better, but most college stadiums already have similar policies.
Most of the core guidelines are things that would get you kicked out of any sporting event, but I’d like to see how prohibiting “verbal…harassment of opposing team fans” goes over. The code of conduct also targets intoxication, but I haven’t read anything yet about the NFL discouraging beer sales at games. Strange…it seems like an obvious solution.
