NFL wants pat downs from ankles up at all stadiums

[^_^ 5,021]

The NFL wants all fans patted down from the ankles up this season to improve fan safety.

Previously, security guards only patted down fans from the waist up before gaining entry to NFL stadiums. Under the new "enhanced" pat-down procedures, the NFL wants all 32 clubs to search fans from ankles to the knees as well as the waist up.

I was hoping that the cheerleaders would pat me down from the waist to the knees.

That and trying to watch the game in the stadium sucks. Over priced beer, food, etc... the NFL can go hang itself.

I used to try and get down to Seattle once a year to catch a Seahawks game. They used to sell package deals up here for flight, hotel, game tickets, etc.. for Alaskans and then they said we got too drunk and rowdy so Alaska Airlines ended that deal.

Once we get a QB again watch out. If the hawks lose every game this year then they have a chance to get Andrew Luck from Stanford. Oh ya!

Thank the refs for giving away the super bowl to the Steelers. Even the announcers said that was the worst officiated super bowl they ever saw (hawks vs steelers).

It's still fun to get out to see a game. Of course I remember a few decades when watching the Patriots play was torture.
