It's your opportunity to photograph trash, how can you resist? |

Or the drunks lying amongs the rubbish scattered grounds with the stadium as thebokeh backdrop and a couple of streakers running across the playerless field, with a flower by the drunks face and a child sitting on his back.

In both San Francisco and Oakland, you'll find that reliably, right about the eighth inning (of a day game), the seagull horde will start circling, waiting for the crowd to clear out and let them eat ... |

so wait...let me get this straight...we aren't taking photos right after the game...we have to wait until everyone goes home. So pictures of nothing?? What happens if you get people camping in the parking lot? They didn't go home, so do you have to wait until they finally pack up and go home?? What about the janitors, do we have to wait until they go home too?? |

Shoot, I cannot believe this challenge!!! Just yesterday I went to a Manchester United match (3-0 against FC Copenhagen)and it would have been perfect for this. Everything was there!! the drunks, the puppies, the trains, even the horses. Babies and butterflies were missing though.
Sounds like fun I will have to go again this weekend!! |

why does it have to be a sporting event tho instead of " after the game" with or without sports??? I think it would open the field up a bit more. |

There'a already an entry. I wonder what sporting event ended so soon after the challenge was announced?

This one's gonna be too difficult for me - Bokeh III here I come (and probably 400 others ;-)

This one may be difficult, but I think I'm staying away from Bokeh. |

Perhaps someone from another country where the time was right for this. |

This challenge sounds to me like it will turn into a debate of what is really a sport and what is not. the DNMC Patrol should probably read up on the subject. lol

Or maybe it's there game of monopoly that just finished...and all the empties are lying around, with the puppy, the flower, the butterfly and the nude drunk!!

Oh nooo.. I so wanted to do something this time that didn't have something wrong.. Now I'll just get voted down for my idea of not using cliched ideas and expected ideas.. I'm so never thinking out of the box again..

...so what ahappens if we're not sure?
We go out of our way to produce a photo and then it gets shot down for "not being a sport"?
Sorry, newbie speaking here

"...and the players and people have gone home."
How strict do you think that will be for DNMC?
Why not just "After the Game"?
Chances are you will be a spectator, with friends/family, and I doubt they will want to stick around waiting for the crowd to be gone.
Especially the 105,000+ we'll have at Ohio Stadium for the Buckeyes game this Saturday.
