New 2008 Tailgate Rules

I got this crap in my email today!!!

Parking & Coliseum Changes


Beginning with the 2008 season, McAfee Coliseum has instituted policies in the parking lots and stadium to comply with the Oakland Municipal Code, enhance fans' tailgate experience, and be responsive to fan feedback. Please be aware of these changes as you make tailgate and game day plans. We appreciate your help in making the Coliseum and parking lots an enjoyable environment for all fans, guests, and tailgaters.

* Overnight parking is prohibited.
* Line-up for early arriving vehicles will begin at 5:00 a.m. for all lots and all gates. Please note that for games with kickoff times after 5:00 p.m., line-up will begin at 11:00 a.m.
* By Oakland City Ordinance, all D.J. set-ups, bands, performances, and amplified noise or music are prohibited. This policy will be enforced by law enforcement and violations may result in confiscation of equipment and/or citations.
* Bills larger than $20.00 will not be accepted.
* Limousine parking is $75.00 per game. Please contact the Raiders Ticket Office to pre-purchase your limousine parking pass.
* Over-sized vehicles, including RVs, buses, and trailers, must have a pre-purchased pass for the over-sized vehicle parking lot. Please contact the Raider Ticket Office for more information.
* The Oakland Raiders Fan Code of Conduct will be enforced in all parking lots. Visit www.raiders.com for the complete Code of Conduct. Behavior prohibited by the Code of Conduct will not be tolerated in the parking lots.

Call me at (800) 724-3377 or email me at ppappas@raiders.com with any questions or concerns you may have regarding game day parking policies.

Thank you for your continuous support of the Silver & Black.

Please contact the Raiders and express your displeasure.

This is straight bs, the municipal code is being used as an excuse! I hope someone is cited, so the courts can throw out the case. Read the code, the penalties are small and it probably doesn't even apply.

We all have to realize Raiders fans are not going to suddenly emulate the ever kind and gentle Niners fans. Yawn. Zzzz. If people can't taunt the other team, can't drink or swear, can't behave like wild teenage boys in a locker room or hang a Bronco in effigy, then the Raiders wouldn't have any fans at all because the team currently sucks (yes, more than the Broncos) and the only reason anybody goes is for the atmosphere, such as it is, which we all know is not sushi, Dom Perignon, Bach and tuxedoes but ribs, Coronas, AC/DC and the wearing of skulls on your shoulders. It's often rude and crude and sometimes lewd. It's a commitment to petulance, baby, but if you don't like it, don't go.
