After brawl with Michigan, Ohio assemblyman proposes bill making it a FELONY to plant a flag at Ohio Stadium

An Ohio assemblyman is proposing a law to make it a FELONY to plant an opposing school's flag at midfield in Ohio Stadium.

YES, A FELONY!

From the bill (which luckily wasn't covered in tears as it's in digital form):

No person shall plant a flagpole with a flag attached to it in the center of the football field at Ohio stadium of the Ohio state university on the day of a college football competition, whether before, during, or after the competition.

This all because Ohio State players started a fight after the Wolverines disrespected them by planting their flag on the Ohio State field after a victory, leading to police intervention.

The bill called the O.H.I.O. Sportsmanship Act wouldn't make planting a flag on an opponents field illegal across the entire state, it would only apply to Ohio Stadium.

This would be an F-5 felony, meaning that violators could face up to a year in prison or a $2,500 fine!

Williams saw police pepper spraying Michigan football players after a game and really thought, They're getting off too easy! Throw 'em in jail!

Pretty obvious suggestion here for Ohio State, but if you don't want your opponent celebrating victory in your stadium you should try BEATING YOUR OPPONENT!
