The stadium sits on state land inside a county that enforces 1700s-era blue laws, which limit what people can buy on the Christian Sabbath. Sales of clothing, furniture, home decor, appliances and building supplies are off-limits on county land, making the laws some of the strictest in the nation. Grocery stores, restaurants, gas stations and other "essential" businesses are allowed to remain open.
