Camden Yards policy is that no banners can be hung anywhere in the stadium so as not to obstruct other fans’ views of the game, according to a posting on the team’s website. Additionally, the team policy reads that “banners are subject to confiscation if the content is commercial, political, and/or in bad taste according to the Orioles’ discretion.”

Gee, if I panted Trump 2020 on one of those rainbow flags and unfurled it, I wonder what they would do?

Hmmm. A ‘sticky’ situation possibly? So, according to the ‘oreo’s’ front office, was the banner also in bad taste as well as possibly blocking the view of someone? It was political.

Didn’t the Orioles play a game to an empty stadium during the late “disturbances”?

Well done, Boys. Well done. At least you got to see most of the game. By the 8th inning, people are leaving, so that would make their exit safer. Less people around = less chance of a Trump Hater going crazy, getting violent.

Does a venue or the organizers of an event at a venue have the right to surpass the freedom of people who attend an event?

An open borders group did something similar at the Red Sox/Rays game last night.

I wonder what happened to them?

I didn’t realize MLB ballparks still allowed banners at all.

Isn’t it a blessing to be escorted out of an Orioles game?

Is that against the stadium, team, or MLB rules?

The thing I wondered about is, the policy says your banner can be confiscated, and I’m OK with that, it’s their park, and their rules; but the article says they were ejected. Was that because they fought against the confiscation, or was that retaliation for the message?

I got in trouble at a Red Sox/Mariners game when I held a Red Sox jersey over in front of the section I was sitting in. It wasn’t obstructing but I was told to bring it back up and put it away. lol I did so.
