Recently, we told you all about some great sunscreen products that are safer for you and the environment than those containing oxybenzone. Apparently, this chemical is not only harmful to your personal health, but it's so dangerous, Yankee Stadium has banned all sunscreens from their park.

Ok, so that's not the reason they're banning the sunscreen, but the real reason is probably even more ridiculous. Along with the recent ban of all liquids from airports, the stadium has decided that baseball fans are dangerous terrorists, and not just concerned citizens coping with the effects of global warming. Way to protect us all from sunscreen-bombers.
