Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Wear paper bag to game?

Has anyone here considered wearing a paper bag over their head to a game yet? I've considered it a few times but didn't follow through. Could you get thrown out of a game for that? I know the Mariners organization is pretty anal on things fans can wear to the games. Wearing a bag over your head is one of the few ways (other than booing and booing gets old) fans can show how unhappy the fans are with our underachieving team. It could also bring media attention to how we're so unhappy about this team.So does anyone have the guts to do it? I know some of you would with a beer or two in you.

If we could get a group of us to do this on a Lookout Landing night I would totally do this.

We should also wear shirts with things like “Fire Howard Lincoln” on it. If we can organize this, I’m totally in. Qwest Field let me bring a bag for Alexander and I know an awesome security guard at the CF gate who would likely allow them in. Either way they can’t just take them from you, no matter who the security guy is.

Or do a mass protest a la Pirates and Orioles.

I think our organization has sunk to that level. I’d be all for that if we got enough people.

That would be fucking awesome.

They ban paper bags at Safeco?

If they let outside food into the stadium, you could just use the bag as a lunch bag. Then cut the necessary holes if you want to watch the game.

Indeed

Wearing paper bags to the game is akin to giving money to a political party with a note attached disagreeing with their platform. The only protest that will be heard is to STOP BUYING TICKETS.

How much would it cost to rent one of those planes that has a banner that hangs on it?

I’m thinking “Fire Howard Lincoln” only because everything else would probably give me jail time.

A group of 4 guys had paper bags up in the 300 level on JJ bobblehead night.

They wore them most of the game, and no one ever said a peep to them.

There isn’t much that would get me to smile at a game…except a big glowing sign in the sky…

Well it says
Additional discounts are available for long-term contracts, non-profit organizations, and for warm-hearted messages for birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and marriage proposals.

What could be more heart warming to the good people of Seattle than getting rid of incompetent management so we can enjoy Felix’s career in peace?
