Talk about a story from hell. This link will take you to an appeals court ruling in U.S. v Malol. What a case! You need to read some of the horror stories (they begin on page 4). I've moved several times, and have always used large, national chains...and this is the reason why.

Go Bears! Beat the Colts!

Back in 1986, as the Chicago Bears football team approached an NFL championship, ‘Bears Fever’ delightfully invaded Orchestra Hall. At the end of a Tchaikovsky-Liszt orchestral concert with music director Sir Georg Solti conducting, applause kept the maestro returning to center stage.

Suddenly, members of the Chicago Symphony Chorus—wearing Bears sweatshirts—streamed onstage, and Solti led the Orchestra and Chorus in a rousing rendition of the Bears’s fight song, Bear Down, Chicago Bears. The audience joined in singing, and in the two repeats of the concert, the same thing happened with even more ‘performers’ onstage. Backstage people, Chicago Symphony Orchestra staff, and others—including Lady Valerie Solti—crowded in to sing along.
