How patently ridiculous! Making a guy with camera not use the flash? That is going WAY to far. Let the dad take pictures of Johnny....most cameras will not take a decent picture without a flash.

The flashes in college and pro games are 100's of times more powerful than the little flash in a pocket camera. Those "pro" flashes aren't a problem so why would a tiny pocket camera flash be a problem. Even if they've got a nice digital SLR with an external flash, they're still no more than one tenth the power of the pro flashes.
