[Devils-list] New Arena

[Princess Buttercup]

Let's not get into the issue of security at CAA.  They let some boston fans 
roam around by the players cars after the January game.  I had a fit and 
complained to the "security" people on duty by the lot.  All they said was 
"We didn't see it".  I voiced my complaints to a number of people in the 
Devils organization and Meadowlands "Security" and can only hope that 
they'll pay more attention from now on.  My point is this...If security is 
letting people roam around the cars of the PLAYERS AND COACHES, do you 
really think they're watching your car?
