Should the person sue and get his money back? Absolutely! They should have been upfront if they didn't want certain breeds at the park.

This is not a California wide breed ban so the premise of comparing the ban to people isn't quite legit. If a private business banned people based on race then there would be a huge lawsuit based on civil rights.
A private (very rich) business that does not like bad publicity. And the actual event hasn't happen yet. Wouldn't sue but would try to turn it into a media headache for them this week-cheaper than lawyers and he'll probably get more than his money worth. "7 on your side" anyone? Get them to explain why they couldn't come right out and explain the ban instead of trying other excuses first. Get them to explain why they can not put out the complete list of "10-15" breeds that are not allowed and why they don't tell people before they take their money. Get them to explain why other teams have these dog days without these bans-what is their problem? (Mention the A's and Giants -nothing like throwing their rivals in their face!) Any of the police K9 unit patrol on game day with gsds?

And since I'm a Bay Area sports fan -- how about a jersey burning bonfire with all the doggy jerseys the day of the event. Any Chargers jerseys should be welcomed as well.
