‘Really, @CollegeGameDay?’ ESPN’s ‘No religious signs’ rule confounds some

Are religious signs really a concern at college football games? Even the president quoted scripture in his executive amnesty speech to the nation Thursday night.

A 2013 “all-access” look at the behind-the-scenes effort to make College Game Day a reality confirms that signs with a spiritual message haven’t been welcome. As USA Today reported at the time, “You know the signs: ESPN puns, jokes, taunts – but all within the range of good taste. There are certain crowd rules: No food or drinks, no vulgar signs, no throwing objects, no religious signs and no political signs, among others. ESPN’s security team culls through the signs, removing one for every five that pass muster.”
