Dude, it's one thing for songs to cuss every now and then but most of this crap goes way past that. I don't have kids but I get it. **** sure, I'll want my kids to go to come to the game and share my passion for our Canes. You're out in public not the club. There's nothing wrong with partying but keeping the tunes clean.Lol nobody wanted to listen to your crappy music anyways.
Coming from someone who never went or only went to the lamest ***ing tailgates at the Orangle Bowl. This is just another set of rules that takes away from the college environment that once was the OB.
It started seven years ago when they said "Eliminating the student tailgate section will mean we won't have crazy tailgates"
Then six years ago, they removed your choice of where to park by implementing directional parking. Now that family of six is forced to park next to a fraternity because Junior Deputy from MDPD says so. The first few years when we could pick our spots didn't have as much overlap. If you had 100 people tailgating together, you could line up 10 cars no problem across from each other. Now, trying to do a convoy of more than 4 or 5 is impossible without getting crap from stadium staff.
4 years ago they started going around giving everybody s**t for having their tables too far into the path.
Every few years, there is so much command and control added and exerted onto tailgating that it's turning into a vanilla experience. Remove directional parking for the first hour of tailgating and you see lower complaints.
You realize that there is a student org lot, right? It's a ****show(A fun one to witness), but it exists. They aren't saying that you can't play any music, they are saying that you can't play explicit music. It's not that hard to find censored or remixed versions of songs, and in an atmosphere that is about appealing to families, I don't think that's too much to ask. Frankly, I don't go to the tailgates for the music, I go to kick it with my friends, play some beer pong, and run into some of my old classmates. The reason rules like this exist is because a lot of people are morons who have no respect for others.
Censoring the music someone can or can not play at a tailgate is 100x worse than just saying it can't be too loud.
Anyone who complains about explicit lyrics needs to stop being a little *****.
