People with severe peanut allergies are often restricted
from attending sporting events because of the abundance of peanuts at most
venues.
On Saturday, October 16, 2013, Northwestern University made
history as it hosted University of Minnesota in a college football game. This monumental
day wasn’t because of the score, but what was happening in the stands. This was
the first time a university promoted a “peanut-free” athletic event to
accommodate people with peanut and tree nut allergies. Peanut products were
removed from the concession areas and fans were prohibited from bringing
peanuts into the facilities.
Thank you NU for raising public awareness about peanut
allergies!!
Keep out of the nut house!!
