NFL Teams Want To Give Full Body Searches For Fans Of The Current Game
In an attempt to improve the security of the games, the NFL wants the teams to provide a thorough pat-downs for all fans entering stadiums during the 2011 season.
USA Today reports that the league sent a memo to teams before the season calls for up to pat-downs of the ankles up to the 17 million fans expected games this season. Previously, the pat-downs from the suggested size.
NFL spokesman told the newspaper that the fans should expect longer wait to get the stadiums, but asked for patience as delays and the more invasive process.
If these measures do nothing to improve the safety of fans, patience and understanding can be expected. All this does is create the illusion that things are safer. This is not at the airport. No metal detectors and body scanners act as deterrents. Safety is a yellow jacket with a guy make a shallow, three seconds, the pat-down. If you want to sneak on something that is not hard to do.
I have been a handful of NFL stadiums in recent years and have had the opportunity to see "improved" post-9/11 screening techniques in action. As far as I can see, Port Security sole purpose is to create a mass of humanity at the inlet and comb through scholarships for women. Pat downs are jokes. Security staff selected only from the waist. If they felt something in my pocket, their use was most likely to ask "what is it?" A half-decent answer for you a pass. In winter, it's even worse. People go to the game involves five layers of clothing, plus a winter jacket. There is no chance to pat down and feel nothing but insulation.
Previously, if you've ever wanted to bring any item prohibited in the NFL game you want to be a fine, as long as you hold in your hands, where it protrudes from the pocket or handbag to carry it. Is there an easy way to circumvent the new rules. Do not want to sound gruesome, but if someone wanted to do something terrible is the NFL game, the ankle up to the pat-down is not going to stop them. Similarly, to prevent drunken idiots standing about in the fighting. And the more belligerent to the police to listen to the fans, instead of exposing the masses to the sense pat-downs?
The main effect of this whole affair will be delays. At one point in the NFL, there may be 70,000 people trying to enter the eight ports in a period of 45 minutes. It is logistically impossible to give the full pat-down search of all procedures currently in place and have people come to the game on time. Is not that the NFL is supposed to experience Gameday better for the fans? Waiting for additional line 30 minutes to the NFL may be false claim that the game is sure is not the way to do it.
