The SuperBowl is coming in just a few days&#8230; Yeah! I&#8217;ve always felt the best seat in the house was not at the stadium but right in front of my big-screen TV!

Why, you ask? Here&#8217;s the reality of a &#8220;live game&#8221; atmosphere&#8230;It&#8217;s not safe! Too many fights! (Especially if the Raiders are in town!)

<p>Why, you ask? Here&#8217;s the reality of a &#8220;live game&#8221; atmosphere&#8230;<span id="more-135"></span>It&#8217;s not safe! Too many fights! (Especially if the Raiders are in town!)</p>
<p>Yeah, football is a violent game, but the game takes a different twist when the fans start punching and tackling each other in the seats. Beer&#8230; profanity&#8230; more beer&#8230;obstructed views&#8230;some more beer&#8230;just doesn&#8217;t make for a great Sunday afternoon.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t these clowns know everyone around them is trying to watch the game???</p>
<p>How are you supposed to enjoy the excitement with your kids when you&#8217;re worried about protecting them every minute of the game? Thank God I&#8217;m not an Eagles fan. Did you know they actually have a built-in <strong><em>Jail Cell</em></strong> at their stadium??</p>
<p>I was happy to see the NFL finally take some action on this issue. Did you hear what they did?</p>
<p>They activated an Anonymous Tipline at nearly every stadium in the league. Fans can send a text message to Security and point out an unruly drunk or troublemaker. The text message can describe the seat number, row, and location of the instigator. Security can then use a sophisticated video system to get an instant look at the area in question and decide how to respond. Pretty good idea&#8230;I must admit!</p>
<p>The NFL says it is working fairly well and they are receiving an average of 12-15 texts per game. Maybe now the fans can actually enjoy the game for a change.</p>
<p>Until every stadium starts issuing helmets and pads to all the fans, leave the fighting to the players on the field.</p>
<p>To all the &#8220;football fighting knuckleheads&#8221; out there&#8230;. GAME OVER!</p>
<p>Be Safe!</p>
