Fan Behavior Guidelines
9/16/2004 12:00:00 AM | General
President Larry Penley and Director of Athletics Mark Driscoll ask your cooperation in accepting responsibility for proper conduct in an atmosphere of sportsmanship that is the essence of college football. Enthusiastic student and alumni support in the stadium and at pre-game tailgate parties is encouraged, but moderation and an attitude of civility is expected. A zero tolerance policy for public drunkenness, rowdy behavior, fights, thefts, destruction of stadium property, and throwing items onto the field will be enforced by law enforcement and stadium security personnel. Participating in such activities will be reason for immediate arrest or ejection from the game.
