Of course it was an isolated incident; that's why the stadium security will be on "red alert" this week.

Boren's a buttboy for the Islamofascist muslimes.

I asked the same questions very early on. If it's "just a suicide".... and "there's no evidence" he tried to enter the stadium...

Why the additional cameras...?

Why no more halftime passes...??

Why the additional security as all remaining games...???

"Investigators say the blast was an isolated incident."

Who do they think they are fooling? That's an insult to any reasonable person's intelligence.

Well, that's weird.

Do they think another depressed loner who has no ties to Islam might try to commit suicide outside the stadium, while having no intent to harm others?

I tell you what. Definitely no concern nationally....

Went to the Ohio State vs. Michigan State game. No increase in security at all. Heck, FR is the only place I have heard this entire story at all.

The University will give an evacuation plan to fans heading through the gates.

Why bother? It was the work of a "lone, screwed up kid" who has already dispatched himself..

They had to bypass "elevated stagus orange alert" and go straight to "red alert" for the obvious reasons...... :)

Letter outlines stadium security

Source.

By James S. Tyree

Transcript Staff Writer

The University of Oklahoma football fans should arrive a little early for Saturday’s game.

OU football season ticket holders Monday received a letter from university president David Boren that explains stadium security. The letter came with an urgent-looking flier entitled “For Your Safety,” which outlines evacuation procedures in words typed in all capital letters.

The Sooners’ football game this Saturday against Baylor will be their first at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium since the Oct. 1 bombing on the South Oval during the OU-Kansas State football game.

Engineering student Joel Henry Hinrichs III carried the bomb and died in the blast. Boren detailed in the letter what he, university staff and law enforcement did in the moments following the explosion, then explained stadium security procedures and resources that have been in place since shortly after the 9/11 attacks.

They include bomb X-ray devices, many security cameras placed throughout the stadium and concrete barriers to block off streets or sidewalks.

Attention on stadium security and what to do in the event of an emergency will be increased prior to this Saturday’s game, scheduled to kick off shortly after 6 p.m.

“At the next home game, all fans will be given safety instructions when they enter the stadium,” Boren wrote. “I wanted to share with you, our season ticket holders, the enclosed safety instructions (the flier) in advance so that you may have time to think about them before coming to the game. I would also advise coming to the game a little earlier since searches at gates will be particularly thorough.”

Paging Janet Reno, Paging Janet Reno, it has been reported by UPS that they have noticed guns being shipped to mosques. Janet please call your buddies at the FBI and ATF to check out every mosque. Please make sure they are equipped with incendiary rounds.

I guess the suicide note left on the computer screen by the muslim roommate did little to allay fears...

This might not be isolated to OK football games. A report in the Austin paper said there would be no backpacks allowed at the last two home games. I don't recall a reason being given.

Oh, what's all the fuss about? Everyone knows the Religion of Peace fanatics can be easily reasoned with. Some hugs, some hand holding and a few verses of 'Kumbaya' and all will be well. /sarcasm

Let's just see those b@stards screw with a UW Badger Football Saturday... ;)
