I wouldn’t sue in Oxford, like y’all did in the case of Tonsillitis TROnidad.

You’d be in courts you won’t be real comfortable in.

They typically do not.

Nobody would.

Because of the cringe tsunami your arguments would incite.

This isn’t what was said.

"Effective immediately, no person wearing an opposing team's gear or colors will be allowed entrance into the student section," the email said. "Additionally, anyone found to be wearing opposing team apparel or colors in the student section will be removed."

This is what was said

If a public university tried to enforce that, it would be a legal issue.

Ole Miss Athletics = Public University
quote:

Luckily, like every other SEC school, they yielded operations of sporting events to a private organization, typically a non-profit corp or LLC, who rents the space from the university. A private organization can make these decisions with expansive legal protection assuming they don't target a protected group.

Ole Miss Athletic Foundation hasn’t said a word.

Glad I could bring you up to speed scholar.

Any court that you file this suit will be fun for me.

I'd laugh my arse off.

I was pretty good at showing you that the Ole MIss Athletic Association is, indeed, a corporation.

First cogent opposing argument of the thread. Kudos. Genuinely.

It is a bit harder to distinguish. But at a public event involving rival teams, colors are actually speech. I don’t think cutoffs and tank tops qualify as such.

And judges absolutely cannot ban political candidate buttons in chambers. We’ve fought that one out.

I’m really not effing with you here. You are the only poster that has made me have to think.

Respect.

No it actually doesn't. A ticketed event institutes a revokable contract in which the host has the right to remove someone for not following thier rules. Free speech is based in being arrested or prosecuted for using free speech not being thrown out of a football game.

Surely the law scholar knows it’s not a 5013(c) though right?

Ole Miss Athletics Foundation
Designated as a 501(c)(3)

Unless your argument is that I transposed the c and 3 for one post.

In which case, ok?

The state is setting the terms!

You think because it’s ticketed the state can ban speech it doesn’t like?

Under your logic, it could ban Catholics!

Of course they do.

Seriously where did you go to law school. I have to know.

Some people are failing to realize that if the Ole Miss Athletic Foundation were to have made the statement, this would be a 1A non-issue because it is a 501(c)(3).

A certain Florida scholar needs to observe and memorize my bolded letters and numbers and check his own post history.

Again, this is a protected class. So no.

How is restricting access to a student section banning free speech?

You have entry to the stadium and the ability to ticket a seat anywhere else in the stadium.

You think they will let you demand your free speech in the press box or with the stadium announcer?

That’s what Sankey and the SEC said.

Out of curiosity, how do you feel about cold gumbo?

There is nothing preventing a public institution from releasing these rules, but if they (the public institution) enforced it, it would be a different story.
