Taking the fun out of the fans

| | Comments (0) |


Associated Press -Wisconsin fans of high school sports may soon get this message: Show your team spirit, but don't expose anything else.
The sportsmanship committee of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association
recommended banning fans with bare or painted chests from indoor games last month. The
proposal will take effect if a committee of state athletic directors OKs it next week and
the association's Board of Control approves it June 19.
"People say, 'Hey, we are attempting to take the fun out of high school sports.' That isn't
the intention at all," Tom Shafranski, assistant director of the association, said.
