Redskins did not ban fans from bringing signs any more

Fans, whether wearing Redskins jersey or Broncos jersey, can take whatever signs into stadium to watch Sunday’s game between the Washington Redskins and Denver Broncos as the Redskins announced that they revised their stadium sign policy that prevented fans from bringing any signs to their last game.

Owner Dan Snyder said in the statement that he understands that “some fans want to express their feelings with signs and they should do so, as long as they stay within the boundaries of good taste and don’t block the view of other fans.” The statement was made about 2 1/2 hours before Sunday’s game against the visiting Broncos.

Because of increasing signs critical of Snyder and front office chief Vinny Cerrato, the team released a ban last month that prevented spectators from carrying any signs or banners into its stadium, but saying that they did so for fans’ security and comfort.
