The owner of the Phoenix Suns basketball team, Robert Sarver, opposes AZ's new immigration laws. Arizona's
Governor, Jan Brewer, released the following statement in response to Sarver's criticism of the new law:
"What if the owners of the Suns discovered that hordes of people were
sneaking into games without paying? What if they had a good idea who
the gate-crashers are, but the ushers and security personnel were not
allowed to ask these folks to produce their ticket stubs,
thus non-paying attendees couldn't be ejected. Furthermore, what if
Suns' ownership was expected to provide those who sneaked in with
complimentary eats and drink? And
what if, on those days when a gate-crasher became ill or injured, the
Suns had to provide free medical care and shelter?"
-Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer
