For not letting a Season Ticket Holder participate in a pre-game on-the-field program because he was wearing a Packers jersey.

If the team is that meat-bally, no wonder so many fans follow suit.


From https://sports.yahoo.com/green-bay-fan- ... --nfl.html

Quote:
CHICAGO (AP) -- A Green Bay fan is making a federal case out of a dispute with the Chicago Bears, filing a lawsuit accusing the rival team of violating his free-speech rights by prohibiting him from wearing Packers apparel at Bears' pregame warmups.

Russell Beckman of Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, filed the 10-page lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Chicago on Friday seeking a court order lifting the ban.

An email Beckman sent to Bears executives that he included in his court filing last week accuses the team of creating ''segregated safe spaces for Bears fans'' by banishing Packers gear.

''Stop coddling them,'' he wrote.

The filing includes a photograph of the lifelong Green Bay fan in a green-and-yellow Packers jersey and with his beard dyed green. Beckman lives just across the Illinois state line - an hour drive north of Chicago - and holds Bears season tickets, the lawsuit says.

The suit's focus is a Bears rewards program that lets season-ticket holders stand along the sidelines during certain pregame warmups at Soldier Field, something Beckman says he did in 2014 and 2015 in Packers apparel.

The Bears sent him an email before a December Bears-Packers game warning in capital letters, ''NO OPPOSING TEAM GEAR WILL BE ALLOWED,'' according to the lawsuit. He went in Packers apparel anyway and was turned away.

The Bears didn't respond Monday to a message seeking comment. But one of several emails the Bears sent to Beckman explaining the policy said the sideline access ''was specifically created as a unique opportunity for Chicago Bears fans.''

In a letter to the NFL complaining about the policy, Beckman notes he followed both the Packers and Bears as a child before picking the Packers as his No. 1 team.

''Doesn't the fact that the Bears are my second favorite NFL team qualify me as a 'Bears fan?''' he wrote.

Hardly meatball of the Bears when they told him in advance not to do so.

Also, why is this green bay burrito buying Bears season tickets?

Do you know how much of an asshole you have to be for me to agree with the McCaskeys?

Do you even have first amendment rights when you have to buy a ticket to get into the "private" event?

Change the thread title to this idiot Packers fan. It turns out he goes to 1 game a year, the Packers game, and sells or "gives away" the rest of the tickets. This isn't a guy that roots for both teams and just likes the Packers more. He's a guy who buys season tickets for profit and to see one game.

I honestly hope the Bears cancel his season tickets and this moron gets what he deserves.

I guess I'm new to this whole "Douchebag of the Week" thing...if the guy is being a douchebag, and you state "Fuck this guy," why are you denying his nomination to be the Douchebag of the Week?

went to a bears game with a friend who is STH and i said "fuck" one time after some boondoggle of a bears offensive play. anyhow, immediately the woman in front of us scolded the shit out of me. then i remembered my buddy could lose his tickets if she complained.

the whole situation is just blah. i wasnt throwing beer on her kid or her. i wasnt screaming. i paid for the seat and the play deserved a dejected "fuck". its the universal "if you dont want to hear it, watch it at home/if you want to yell and scream and swear, watch it at home"

lets just not go to places anymore

Do bear in mind that this bored is pretty much a free-for-all ... MANY times the thread title only applies for a few posts and then it's off to the races on any number of tangentially- or even un-related topics.

Take, for example, the thread about a kid essentially murdered by North Korea and what a shitfest it's turned into.

No, they should let him in but security should be conveniently busy elsewhere when drunken bears fans beat him up in the bathroom.

Still, the bears remain douches for selectively enforcing a non-existent policy.
