Those bracelets are not allowed in Illinois either. As a matter of fact, these "Livestrong" bracelets were addressed specifically in Rules Meetings to be outlawed and considered as jewelry. These are possibly safety issue as well.

As a multiple sport official I tend to have a different perspective than many here that only work baseball. Most issues like this are something the NF as a whole will outlaw. For those that work Football and Basketball have probably had to deal with these bracelets all year. Many players and coaches have played one if not both of those sports and I am sure they realize these pieces of rubber are not allowed. I have no problem telling kids to remove them.

Peace
