I heard yesterday that the University of Michigan is requesting that the
airspace around their stadium be declared a "no fly" zone during
football games now, for that reason.  I think the seating capacity there
was quoted as being around 100,000.  I imagine that a number of other
stadiums will be making similar requests, as well.  This may be the end
of blimps over sporting events for awhile, and planes trailing
advertising banners.

And then there's the Clancy-esque nightmare of a nuclear device being
set off at a crowded stadium....
