The league needs to look into the continued bad behaviour of visiting Raider fans. They have to have portable jails in San Diego and Arizona. This is no joke. You can’t bring your kids to a Raider game for fear they’ll end up in the middle of some fight in the stands. I’ve been witness to a couple of stabbings, people thrown over rows of seats and little kids screaming because they’re so scared. How sad is that.

It’s not always about the home fans causing chaos.
************************************************
Here’s an idea, how about Charger fans actually buy tickets to the game, so there’s not so many Raider fans there?

Jackass.

I don’t condone people harassing another teams fans to the extreme, but a “visiting fan” can make life miserable for a commited “homer” who just loves his team and wants to have a little fun with the opposition, but where do you draw the line?

Its for the overly unruly fan. The one threatening the 12 year old because of his jersey. The one cursing non stop. Not the guy who yells “Flacco you stink” once or twice.

Its for the guy going 90 MPH in a school zone. Not the guy going 60 MPH in a 55 zone on an empty interstate.

Its the jerk who runs on the field and the one who disrupts the games for others, and the bulk of his section wishes he would go away. If you have been to games and if you dont know who that guy is…Well than maybe you should be concerned because it’s probably you.

I have been ejected from stadiums for the most minuet issues. I was ejected from a game in Cleveland for banging on a fiberglass sign during half time. I was ejected in Buffalo because my friends and I were chanting “FIRE DONAHOE” [former Buffalo GM]. You can be ejected from stadiums just because the security guard is having a bad day.

Also, it will be impossible to enforce. Unless the NFL is going to require all fans to show proof of ID upon entry, they’ll never be able to enforce this rule. I went to a soccer game in Italy and the name on your ticket had to match your passport. With stubhub and other legal online resale sites, I don’t know how they could ever enforce this rule.

There are two positions expressed here that are both sad and pathetic. 1. That the NFL wants to prevent fans from being loud, enthusiastic or boisterous. Not True. Just be positive, root for your team, and don’t be physicially or verbally abusive to fans who are rooting for a different team than you are. 2. That it is expected and therefore acceptable that fans should defend their home turf. Get over yourselves. Fans are not competitors. They do not own their stadium and they do not win anything by harrassing visiting fans. Sad that people have trouble with this simple concept.

Can we as fans force them to take a class on how to conduct yourself as an owner, and a GM, then force them to refund me for all the money I’ve given them over the last 4 years?

That fan gets a little heated and then has to use four hours of their time – as well as pay their hard earned money ($75.00) – in order to have the privilege of paying the NFL more of their hard earned money (on season tickets) in order to continue going to games? Who is responsible for this bright idea? Give me a break.

It’s getting about time to knock Mara and Goodell of their high horse. Owners like Mara should not be allowed to hold ANY position at the league office due to conflict of interest. The same reason The President if the United States cannot be the CEO of any company while in office. Goodell and the league office are going to end up making such a mess that the government eventually will get involved.

It’s amazing how fast you can tame a drunken cheesehead by pointing a cell phone video camera at him and mentioning “filing charges”! Bring extra batteries ………you will need them at Lambeau

==================================

Not really. I’ve been to quite a few games at Lambeau and have had quite a few opposing teams’ fans sitting near me. It’s been all good natured banter with a nice amount of humor. The only bad behavior has been from some of the other team’s fans who were drunk and abusive. But even they were few and far between. Lambeau brings out the best in people. Except maybe you, noeffinway, who seems to be looking for trouble.

There’s very little the NFL can do to prevent someone who’s “banned” from acquiring game tickets, and its infeasible to screen/ID every person who attends a game.
