Protesters hijack Monday Night Football: Two men abseil from the stands and dangle unhindered for TWO QUARTERS as Colts play Panthers - but how did they get rappelling gear past security?
Two protesters rappelled down from the upper balcony to unfurl a banner protesting against Bank of America during Monday night's game between the Indianapolis Colts and the Carolina Panthers.
The protesters dangled over fans in the lower bowl and in front of press-box windows in Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina, late in the third quarter, then displayed a banner telling the Charlotte-based financial institution to 'dump Dominion'.
The banner also included a website address, which outlined opposition to Bank of America's role in financing a liquefied natural gas export facility by energy company Dominion Resources in Cove Point, Maryland.

Abseil must be the way commies say rappelling.

Learned a new word: abseil as another word for rappel. I didn’t know that I’ve both rappelled and abseiled. Abseiled makes it sound more exotic somehow.

The Stadia are mostly constructed from socialist tax theft.

Obviously ...
These were not fans that "got in" ... with gear and etcetera ...
SOMEone in the stadium heirarchy and / or (Monday Night) (football) industries have a bone to pick with BOA
Does anyone REALLY think this is not a choreographed event ?

With all the stupid sh*t BofA's pulled and they protest that?
Yet further proof that liberalism is a mental disease. As if wee needed any more.

Wounds my heart with a monotonous languor. Every time I hear that verse I have the urge to go out and blow up a Nazi rail line (preferably one leading into Normandy).

It’s 5:02 AM, and my eyes haven’t unblurred yet. I had to look up the word abseil before they meandered to rappelled.
Clear the crowd, and shoot the abeilers down.
