Whats the point of this thread this happens in every stadium.
Yes it does. In fact its prompted the NFL to start requiring anger management classes for fans that are ejected.
“Behaving badly towards other fans, such as fighting, swearing or threatening them, is OK as long as they deserve it.” True or false? Red-blooded, boozed-up football fans would gladly raise a fist in agreement. But the National Football League wants to make it absolutely clear it doesn’t condone such hooliganism.
Fans kicked out of any of eight football stadiums for bad behavior will now have to take a four-hour, $75 online course and pass a 25-question quiz that includes true-or-false questions like the one above. They can take the quiz as many times as they need to pass. Those who don’t comply will not be allowed to reenter the stadium for another game, reported the
New York Post. (If they try, they will be trespassing.)
Since
AJ Novick Group, a Laguna Beach (Calif.)-based anger management training company, began a pilot program in 2010 with MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., and Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.,
the Bills, Browns, Colts, Falcons, Giants, Jets, Packers, and Patriots have started requiring unruly fans to take the class. The NFL is recommending the measure to all 32 teams this season.
No mention of the Eagles there. Guess it does happen around the league. But only when its at an Eagles game is it news worthy.
The article about anger management classes in the NFL is actually thread-worthy imo.
ETA: From the same article
Since 2010, several hundred unruly NFL fans have taken the course, but the numbers should grow with more stadiums participating this year. Novick estimates
each stadium will send roughly 50 to 100 fans per season.
Each stadium, 9 or 10 fans per game. Each stadium. Guess which one will get a new thread dedicated to though? Or make it on SC highlights?
