ATHENS, Ga. (AP) - University of Georgia President Michael Adams
has a message for fans coming to campus for football games this
fall.

He wants them to take their garbage with them when they go home.

Adams said Thursday that fans left a mess all over campus after
Georgia's game against South Carolina last weekend.

He said fans not only left their garbage, but some even urinated and defecated on campus.

Adams said he was hoping fans would take it on themselves to
keep the campus clean.

But he said he would consider taking official action if the campus is not left in better shape after future games.

Viewer Poll

Do you think Tiger Woods should return to competitive golf in time for The Masters?

  • Yes, he will bring more attention and money to the Augusta area
  • No, The Masters Tournament is too special to be tainted by his personal life
  • I don't care either way
