Signs Banned at FedEx Field

Unhappy Redskins fans have been voicing their opinions lately, through petitions, boycotts and portraying signs at the games. The signs included attacks on owner Dan Snyder, Vinny Cerrato and Coach Jim Zorn. Any security guard deeming a sign or article of clothing inappropriate are now telling attendants to get rid of it (or turn it inside out) or get out.

Fans who refuse to comply will be escorted out of the stadium, their information was taken, and they could risk losing their season ticket privleges. This makes absolutely no sense. The people that are paying money to support the team and put money in Danny’s pockets should be able to have a say in how their money is spent. There are a lot of problems involving the Redskins, and Dan should focus on more important things than t-shirts and poster board.

The NFL does not have a policy regarding signs brought to games. The only thing they do not allow are inappropriate signs, or signs that obstruct someone’s view. This is the first time that anyone has ever heard of an organization banning signs.
