Peace at last. Last fall, Wes Hummer was almost thrown out of a Washington Redskins football game when a guard discovered a 99 cent bag of Goldfish crackers in his duffel bag. Across the country, more and more stadiums are hiring guards to make sure fans do not smuggle in food. Officially, it is for safety reasons, to protect players from thrown objects. Some stadiums have acted to keep fans in a consuming mood by banning tailgate parties in their parking lots and hiring food cops to patrol the aisles and snatch away illegal food.
Some people just refuse to read their fan guides.
The law, which ostensibly was passed for safety reasons, has also been used against several Korean churches and an Oriental beauty shop. Special Thanks to David West and Wm.
