[QUOTE="xWVU2010x, post: 129263542, member: 1467482"] We already have a well policed safe environment, I went to games for 4 years and never saw anything dangerous that would require a riot squad, what you are suggesting is having armored police around a sporting event, that my friend is ridiculous. I live near an outdoor concert hall in NJ, about 8 years ago some teenagers got severly drunk at a tailgate and the story made all of the local headlines. The township responded by banning tailgating for concerts and it is strictly enforced. Attendance has been down big time since they turned over power to the police force. I fear something similar for WVU because morons like to light up their furniture once or twice a year despite the fact that they are basically putting their future in the balance by doing so. I dont understand why you think swat teams and armored police are the solution when my solution of sticking undercover cops on streets like Grant Street after games with the sole purpose of waiting for someone to pull out a couch will stop the problem without changing the gameday experience for the other 99.9% of fans who dont light fires.
