I don't see it as widespread though some schools are a bit more prone to it. Last year we did a game where one team was predominantly Native Americans and they had bandanas tied on their elbows and knees. Not in a gang-related way, just ornamentation. We had them removed during pregame.

We do get the occasional bandana worn under the helmet which we request being removed. Then there are some players which wear their wrist bands just above the elbow, or two bands on the wrist, which personally I can live with.

I figure if a player can have long hair waving out from under his lid to be yanked, an extra wrist band or above the elbow will get by me.

* The rubber Livestrong wrist bands are a must to come off though. Go figure huh?

Just my take.
