The proposal, known as the “O.H.I.O. Sportsmanship Act,” would only apply to Ohio Stadium. It would not apply to the state’s other football venues, such as the Cincinnati Bengals’ Paycor Stadium. The language in the bill appears to suggest one could still legally plant a flag at Ohio Stadium if it is not at centerfield.
“I am proud to introduce the O.H.I.O Sportsmanship Act to make flag planting at midfield a felony in the state of Ohio,” he wrote via X. “Behavior that incites violent brawls and puts our law enforcement officers in danger has no place on the football field.”
