NFL team announces alert system to combat misbehavior at games

[One Sweet World]

The Cinci Bangals are instituting a system this fall where fans can call a hotline from their cell phone to alert security if other fans are getting out of control. On the one hand I can understand this service could be beneficial if a fight breaks out in the stands but is this about safety or is it really a public relations ploy? I would hate to see the system overrun by situations involving swear words and result in security overlooking something more serious.

I guess we'll have to wait and see how this system plays out.

1. Cincy? can they implement a system

where fans can call and report players acting up?

2. Not players

Not players but fans acting up.

3. obviously

but given the recent history there, perhaps a system to keep tabs on players would be more effective?
