Is this overkill? I mean, seriously. Luckily he wasn't charged as he could have faced a 1st degree misdemeanor with 3 years probation and a $2,500 fine. I placed it here instead of the pro football forum, because this ties in with the nanny state that this country is turning into. Here is the link to the article below.

Dad kicked out of Arizona Cardinals NFL game vs Dallas Cowboys after asking son to hold beer

It is difficult to discuss something when you have just one side of the story. We certainly have the father's side of the story. However, it may be like the old "But officer, I only have had two beers" excuse by the weaving drunk driver.

For all we know, the father was observed providing one or more beers to his fifteen year old son.

Idiotic. In spite of the basic stupidity of the beer cops, I don't believe you can be charged for providing alcohol to your own child, even if they are under the legal age to purchase alcohol. That may depend on the state, though.

The clear bag policy is really infuriating senior citizens or people with medical conditions that require them to wear adult diapers.

Total BS...unreal. Better to save your money and watch football at home on big screen or support your local pub and go there for the game

Of course a 15 year old can get an abortion or "morning after" pills without dad around. That is liberal logic.
