Re: NFL Shootings
According to our qualitative research 31% of people who say they are avid NFL fans have 4 or more years or college (and above) education. For college, it's 34%.

In all seriousness, I still think it has to do with a combination of the following. 1) Amount of time tailgate lots are open prior to game. 2) Serving alcohol in game 3) Amount of opposing fans at stadium. Also, the fact that students can have their free tickets taken away and expelled also deters them from being stupid. (not always though)

Re: NFL Shootings
When I use to live in the DC area I would go to the skins home games. The guy I use to go with insisted on getting tickets near the 50, and in the lower level no higher than 10 rows up. Now, I never had any issues in those seats. Everyone was always very nice, even opposing teams fans. To ban alcohol at the games would be ridiculous. Adults should act as such, and when they get out of hand or starting fights, then they should be banned from the games. How to do that, I have no idea. I would take my oldest kid (7) to a game for sure. I would sit in the lower levels, and just let him know what he may here is not something that is acceptable in our home, and we just enjoy the game. I have rarely ever seen a fight in the lower levels, alway towards the top of the stadium. I think its an experience that kids love. I know when I was a kid I loved going to the skins games in RFK. It was awesome and I remember the games, the plays, who scored and how. It is a memory that I can't wait to share with my boys.

Re: NFL Shootings
I don't buy the "college fans are smarter" argument at all.

One out of those three stories occurred at the actual game. I still remember the whole NC State fiasco though.
