NFL Announces New Fan Code Of Conduct
The
No Fun League strikes again NFL announces new fan code of conduct YORK (AP)—The NFL implemented a new code of fan conduct Tuesday, warning that spectators who misbehave will be ejected from stadiums and barred from coming back. The policy, first recommended by commissioner Roger Goodell at league meetings in April, is aimed at conduct that the league said “detracts from the gameday experience.” It includes bans on: — Behavior that is unruly, disruptive, or illegal. — Drunkenness and signs of alcohol impairment that result in irresponsible behavior. — Foul or abusive language or obscene gestures. — Interference with the progress of the game, including throwing objects onto the field. — Failing to follow instructions of stadium personnel. — Verbal or physical harassment of fans from the opposing team. “The in-stadium experience is critically important to the NFL, our clubs and our fans and it will be a major focus this season,” Goodell said in a statement. “We are committed to improving the fan experience in every way we can—from the time fans arrive in the parking lot to when they depart the stadium.” The league also left teams the option of adding additional provisions to the code based on local circumstances. It said the guidelines would be contained in mailings to fans and signs posted at stadiums. |

What is new about this?
Looks like the same set of guidelines that are used in every NFL stadium already. |

I'm even more glad I gave up my tickets now,I mean I try not be a total ass when I'm at an NFL game but c'mon it's football,it's about emotion,the way I take this is if according to Baney Fife I've had one beer too many and tell a donkey fan to sit his ass down and said fan goes crying to Barney I can be ejected?

Security is going to have to actually witness these "rules" being broken, and I'd bet anything it's going to take a hell of a lot for someone to get tossed over verbal harassment. So the "unwritten" rules are now written out for all to see. I don't expect to see any significant changes to the gameday experience... |

Raiders fans asked "security" to tell me to sit down during a game at Arrowhead. Hilarious.
