Why is this surprising? ESA’s are not Service Animals. I’m only familiar with how the ADA works, but under the ADA ESA’s have special provisions when it comes to housing and airlines. ESA’s don’t have the right to be in restaurants or grocery stores, etc.

Suspect it is the alligator part of the story that attracted the media to report, rather than the stadium’s response.
