Just heard on my local news. "Two college students, of middle eastern descent,
Edited on Sun Nov-05-06 09:36 AM by BleedingHeartPatriot
caught climbing the walls of Heinz field stadium, in Pittsburgh."

The story goes on, that security guards saw them on camera, and the police, the FBI and the bomb squad were called.

A news conference is going to be held in Pittsburgh later this morning.

We ain't seen nothing yet. MKJ

1. How many people tailgate for a couple hours...
and then get the bright idea that all they have to do is scale the fence and they can get into the game for free?

Do they call out the bomb squad on all of them?

3. Performing college stunts
while being of middle eastern descent? Surely that will get them terrorist status.

7. Hmmm... Didn't some non-middle eastern men get a slap on the wrist...
for actually threatening stadiums a couple of weeks ago?

The DHS: "Ha! Ha! Boys will be boys!"

And the bomb squad was called as a precaution. Alerts have gone to every stadium in the US.

PITTSBURGH - Investigators said two local college students of Middle Eastern descent were caught trying to break into Pittsburgh's Heinz Field overnight.

>snip

The attempted break-in took place around 2:30 a.m. Pittsburgh time. State police, the local bomb squad and the FBI were all called to the scene.


Authorities alerted every NFL team of the break-in attempt.
