    tDECC does not like opposing fans to bring cowbells.
    If you're an opposing fan, tDECC bizarrely cracks down on you if your team takes a lead.

        Funny, but they seem to find enough security at Notre Dame every time I want to discuss anything with a referee between periods or after a game.

          Does arena staff search purses, camera bags and large pockets?

          Is your arena on your campus?

          If not, is the arena a multi-tenant arena (i.e. someone other than just your college/university uses it)?

          Or does the arena do nothing and simply take patrons' tickets?

          I've wondered how others compare to Notre Dame...
          As some others have pointed out already, SCSU's security is pretty lax.

          In my college days (read as: one year ago) I brought a flask or pop bottle full of booze into the arena every game, concealed in my front sweatshirt pocket. I don't believe they search purses, either.

          The arena is on campus (a dry campus) and it's also used for St. John's D-III hockey, as well as some high school games.

          The ticket takers are these real ancient, sometimes crabby folks in white jackets. They just want to get you in there so they can sit down.

          Once inside there's a fairly large contingent of SCSU Public Safety officers as well as St. Cloud PD monitoring the student sections. For the most part they'll only kick you out if you a) look extremely drunk, b) are openly drinking, or c) fall over. Beyond that you're good to go.

            At the Berry in Marquette, its very relaxed. Ticket takers are student employees, who could care less about their min. wage job.

            Does arena staff search purses, camera bags and large pockets?
            Student workers dont care, and come on, its the UP of Michigan.

            Is your arena on your campus?
            Yet, the club teams use it too, along with USOEC Speedskating, and whoever else buys ice time.

            Or does the arena do nothing and simply take patrons' tickets?

            That pretty much sums it up. We have 1 Public Safety officer roaming around, we usually sing her a song about handcuffing us, strip searching, the fun stuff. Noise makers, its not really an issue unless a coach *Cough Comely, Cough* complains to the refs during the playoffs. The Athletic Dept. tried to control the swearing last year, threatening to kick the puckheads out, but that didnt last too long. If they did that, the games would sound a lot like it does at Lake State.

                    Okay, and I've heard that a lot from USCHOers too.

                    Also, since I'm now in GF, I've been taking in several Sioux games. I have noticed no actual changes from the Gophers series (after which they instituted a new "Fan Code of Conduct") to post-Gophers. They scan your ticket, you get in there, and proceed to get obnoxiously drunk with no one really seeming to mind.

                      No need for security at the Schott (tOSU); nobody goes to the games...

                        Interesting. Fellow Irish fans may scorch me for this, but I'm extremely anti-ND right now, with the obvious exception of the hockey team. Their elitist attitude (not just about security, although, heaven forbid a "townie" bring a can of pop to a game) is really getting on my nerves.

                        That and the fact that in the short time since I left the University, I got a letter stating that my personal information (full name, SSN, birth date) was accidently sent out over the Internet. This from the University that required employees to change their e-mail password every 6 months for security purposes.

                        "Why, as a matter of fact, I suggested starting a hockey program to Father Callahan, our president. He was downright interested until we came to the use of sticks, and then he threw up his hands. He said, 'No, that game is not for our University. Notre Dame will never endorse any game that puts a club in the hands of an Irishman.' " -- Knute Rockne: All American

                          Last time they didn't stop us when we had over 5.

                          The first time they stopped us, while frustrating was a good thing, UMD had already given up the game tying goal.

                          Well this one Tech fan that Tech fans do not like complained about our sign. I guess we will have to bring back that sign.
