No wonder it's been awhile since the St. Paul Saints were on my radar.

When bad ideas are considered by bad decision makers, bad things happen. I can't imagine looking into the head of the decision maker who thinks this is a good idea.

This small-time league/circuit is nothing without the good will of the community it serves and the people who buy tickets, which are almost exclusively families with children. Families with children don't always make the best decisions about family entertainment, but it is a sure bet that spending entertainment dollars celebrating organized atheism will not go over well.

I'll bet you'll have people avoid the game, and many of those who show up unaware in advance that this is happening will walk out the gate.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Yeah, inclusive.  Can't wait for pedophile night (kids get in free!), Jihadi night (free bomb-making coloring book!) (nuns better stay home! Locals will now why), GLBT night (free rainbow air fresheners that smell like musty rags!), illegal immigrant night (free sombrero's!)...
