While Camden Yards does permit signs, the stadium's guidelines explicitly prohibit content that is deemed "commercial, political, and/or in bad taste," as determined by the Orioles' discretion. The policy affirms the team's authority to remove any banners at their discretion and warns that individuals involved may face ejection from the premises.
