Fear of frying
The Philadelphia Eagles have announced that fans will no longer be allowed to bring outside food into their new stadium, when it opens this fall. That's not unusual. What is: the team cited "security reasons" as the rationale for the ban on contraband cheesesteaks. Fans are fuming, with one, Eric Manton, telling the Associated Press that using fear of terrorism as an excuse is "deplorable," adding: "They asked the taxpayers for money, they got it, and then they shaft us."
