The "Kiss-Cam" or the practice of panning stadium crowds to find couples sharing a kiss for the video shot, may be a thing of the past in Syracuse. It strikes me as odd just what the reasoning ends up being though? Privacy is what I'd have always though, but then, I'm not what anyone would call a dedicated sports fan to appreciate the fun of that, either.
One Man! One Vot....erm... wrong thread. heh....
Just how does ONE guy writing a letter, with what strikes me as absurd reasoning, get a tradition halted in its tracks? Wow.. REALLY?! So I can write a letter about anything that irks me, and that one note may see a real world change?
Or..is this a bit ridiculous?
I am kinda missing the heated part ( as well as where someone got their methods for statistics?? )
So.. 6/10 figure there isn't a problem ...but to find people who DID care, they had to adjust down to 1 in 7 before getting a whole number 1? Ouch... Heated? I might be heated about what time or resources were wasted on the whole matter, given those numbers.

Sometimes? A Face-palm just says all there is to say, doesn't it?
Earlier this month, a man who attended a Syracuse football game wrote a letter to the editor of a local newspaper, saying the kiss cam encourages male entitlement and sexual assault. Since then: no kiss cam at the Carrier Dome.

The debate on campus has been heated. An online poll in the Daily Orange, the student newspaper, reported nearly six in 10 respondents said the kiss cam should continue to operate unchanged. One in seven said it should be banned, and the remainder thought it should continue to operate, but not in the student section.

Syracuse isn’t the only venue rethinking its kiss cam. The New York Mets said they would stop showing two opposing players inside the heart as a joke after some fans complained it was offensive to gay people.
