A recent article in Security Magazine by Jeffrey Miller of the NFL highlighted some of the recent development they have developed over the past couple years to make games/stadiums safer. the NFL Best Practices for Stadium Security is the guideline used by the NFL for each club to execute inside and outside their stadiums. the guidelines cover facility hardening, electronic monitoring, threat assessment, gate procedures, and other concerns. They supplement the guidelines with unannounced stadium security reviews and give a detailed rating to each club on how well they adhered to the guidelines.
The NFL also developed a Fan Code of Conduct. The code highlights unacceptable conduct for fans as a way to minimize potential problems. The Best Practices for Fan Conduct is supplemented with an independent review of the practices. This is accomplished in part with a fan survey with the results helping to create a rating as well. The text messaging system allowing fans to communicate concerns instantly with security also has been working well and the NFL highlighted receiving 7,299 messages in 2009. This is the Fan Code: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d809c28f9/article/nfl-teams-implement-fan-code-of-conduct.
