I am not a huge fan of football, but generally speaking, the NFL has made itself into a massive powerhouse and family oriented league and the Super Bowl of course is well known for having the most expensive ad time on tv.
4 of the top 10 most valuable sports teams in the world are NFL teams...
11 of the top 20 are NFL teams according to a recent article by Forbes.
The next 10 are almost all NFL teams.
In recent years, there has been a massive burst of crime, particularly violent crime and gun related crimes associated with NFL players so they are trying to stomp that down before it affects the sport too much, i guess... hence the strict policies.
