My reaction used to be similar -- until I had to call an ambulance for a colleague at work.

We met in the cafeteria and got coffee and a donut, mine glazed his coconut. His first bite caused an immediate reaction; his lips puffed up and his lower face turned red. Seems the coconut donut had lain next to a peanut one, and that one bite was all it took, and in seconds. He was out of work for three days, so it isn't just a mild reaction.

Kudos to the team and their management, and notice that the government didn't get involved and they sold out the seats.

Exactly. And note too that the families of the allergy sufferers came to the park early to personally clean their seats.

YET...the government didn't get involved YET. just wait until it gets more publicity....and the families get tired of cleaning filthy seats & bleachers themselves. just wait until they say to themselves, 'wait a minute, I paid just as much for my ticket as those other people....why should I have to clean these seats?'...and they'll call their representative, blah, blah, blah.

I agree with you. Until you've seen the shock that one goes into with a severe allergy, you just can't get it.
