Filled it out and returned it but got to thinking about it later. The big question in many of the posts relate to: Will we play or Wont we play?? We could play IF.... the football team can get through the practice phase w/o serious or widespread virus casualties. Our opponents have the same results low to no C19. That said, if a game is to be played why not do it in the beginning w/o fans? See what happens. Why have the extra worry of ticket/gate contacts, bathrooms, tailgates, etc etc. If a few games are played successfully w/o anyone getting sick then you can start to trickle a few folks in. The survey questions revolved around the..What would it take to get you to a game?? Problem with people is they have a tendency to act like people. Why have that ass-ache right off the bat? Keep the players healthy try to play some football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no way to stop a crowd at the gate, entering and leaving after the game. IF there are concessions there will be crowds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m more interested in the logistics of sitting in your seat, using the restroom, riding in escalators, fitting in doorways and accommodations for wheel chair bound people but it looks fun and the bumper car activities would probably be more interesting than our season this year anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if you wear an inner tube protector, you could tailgate and booze....might be hard to get into the port-o-let, but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverse the game model. Provide just the tailgating and project the game and sound outside the stadium. Rent fencing for those that want to isolate or have non roaming sections. Charge more for parking and then mind your own business about what people choose to do with their tailgates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
