Wed Sep 18 23:06:28 UTC 2024: ## Cardinals Apologize After Fan Forced to Throw Away “MAGA” Hat

**Glendale, AZ** – The Arizona Cardinals have issued an apology after a fan was forced to discard her “Make America Great Again” hat by a security guard at State Farm Stadium during Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.

The fan, a season ticket holder, claims the security guard demanded she throw away the hat, citing a policy prohibiting politically motivated attire. The Cardinals, however, have stated that “MAGA” hats are not on their list of prohibited items and that the security guard misunderstood the policy.

“In an isolated incident at Sunday’s game, a stadium security member misunderstood a policy on prohibited items,” the Cardinals said in a statement. “Like most venues, ‘signage, posters, flags, or displays that are…political in nature’ are not permitted. However, that did not apply in this instance.”

The team is taking steps to ensure future clarity for all stadium personnel in such situations. They have also reached out to the fan to express their apologies and clarify their policy.

Despite the controversy, the Cardinals enjoyed a resounding 41-10 victory over the Rams, with Kyler Murray and Marvin Harrison Jr. leading the offensive charge. The team will face the Lions this Sunday.
