BC reader @maholmes3 is in Anaheim for the Wisconsin-Baylor and Arizona-San Diego State games. He noticed something very odd about the Honda Center – lots of tape over the drink holders.
Why?
“(The) @NCAA taped over all gambling and liquor advertisements at every seat at Honda Center,” Michael reports.
So I told him to rip off the tape and let me see what’s going on.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! A blackjack ad for San Manuel Casino.
You know, because casinos and booze ads take away from the amateurism of college sports. Look at the top photo. That’s a bunch of tape. The place holds 18,336.
