| Climate Activists Take Field During Harvard-Yale Football Game |
| 2019-11-24 |
| [Townhall] On Saturday, Climate protestors interrupted the Yale-Harvard football game at halftime by taking the field and refusing to leave. The protest was organized by two groups, Divest Harvard and Fossil Free Yale. The crowd of protestors consisted of students, alumni, and, of course, faculty members. The protestors unfurled banners that read "Nobody Wins Yale and Harvard Are Complicit In Climate Justice," "This Is An Emergency," and another one addressed to the universities' presidents, "Our Future Demands Action Now." |

| #9 Is it cynical, considering these two institutions, to think the interruption was a planned part of the halftime? |

| #5 Maybe "right wingers" should take the field and burn a koran during their protest? |

| #3 "Complicit in Climate Justice"? Wouldn't want to be accused of perpetrating justice now, would we? Something tells me these faculty and students aren't the brightest stars in the H-Y firmament |

| #2 I noticed these brave Climate Justice warriors did not try these on field antics at the LSU vs Alabama game. |

| #1 Animal grazing or free-range poultry would be a more beneficial use of the field. If the protestations continue, perhaps there is hope. |
