I'm glad that they seem to have caught the son of a ***** who did this, and I hope they string him up by the balls. Because of him, the Steelers have their built in excuse, and the rest of the country has added "and the fans cheat, too" to their **** talking.
Right, we care about the unbiased opinions of the Steelers and their fans because they are models of reason, objectivity, and fairness when it comes to the Patriots.
Sure, the knuckle head who pulled the alarm needs to be punished but let's not go all "Roger Goodell" on the guy.
In other news, the Atlanta Flacons pulled a dense cloud over Green Bay, which forced the Packers to travel 180 miles by bus to Milwaukee to catch a plane from there...
BTW, it's a night game, so pulling a fire alarm at 3am does nothing to the Steelers. For the elderly guests of Jonah Blockenstein's Bar Mitzvah, it is a tougher deal.
That being said, pulling fire alarms should be considered a jailable crime and I hope all hotels have cameras over those things.
In Massachusetts, intentionally setting off a false fire alarm can receive up to a year in jail. It's a public safety hazard - the evacuation can result in injuries from people panicking, and it ties up the emergency services, which can result in disaster if it prevents a timely response elsewhere.
While it seems like petty harassment - and in small towns, that's all it normally is - in a big city, false fire alarms are a serious danger and need to be prosecuted accordingly.
