Atmosphere outside Hawkeye football games could be less festive

Iowa City wants to ban vendors outside Kinnick Stadium on football game days, but the proposal has run into opposition. The Mayor says he opposes the ban and would rather just see better regulation of vendors. And City Manager Tom Markus told the Iowa City Press-Citizen he believes a permitting system rather than a ban would go a long way to limiting some of the concerns about safety and commercial tailgating. Iowa football fans have reacted negatively toward the ban. Iowa City council will discuss it again today.
