Every game would look like Cloverfield.

Because the batteries only last 5-7 minutes. See the Huey Lewis thread.

Because they can be hacked and used to release VX gas on the stadium crowd.

Stadiums are no fly zones.

Would take a huge drone to mount a quality camera

Cable Cam, Spider Cam and Sky Cam are far more stable than a drone would be.

I'd love a worm's eye view of the game, but we'll have to genetically modify an earthworm to make it strong enough to hold even a tiny cam. Until then, I'm fine with a gopher cam.

Pylon camera is crazy.  4 cameras on each pylon.  16 total this year, next year they plan on doing the back pylons too so there will be 32.

I love it, but Travis got all pissy with me when I said so. Something about the game getting soft. He's an old man in a younger guy's body.

A drone would probably fly into the seats at Mile High tonight

Travis also said the players shouldn't wear helmets because it would cut way back on head injuries. I think he's cuckoo for CocoPuffs.
