Except in Baton Rouge. LSU plans on having fans if the SEC plays on.
They have talked that up but if we are still in phase 2 it will be interesting to see. Right now its a good ploy to keep your fans from asking for a refund.

Governor Edwards loves his Tigers. They will do whatever it takes to allow them to have fans. LoToya will be able to prevent New Orleans from doing so even if Edwards allows it statewide. Saints and Tulane under her rule.

We'll see but the Saints are big revenue for the state. Would be a hard sell to make an exception for LSU but not the saints. The Governor was in on the meting that led to the Saints announcement.

No fans for no opponent--it's a strange world we're in.

There’s hope if the Saints are allowed fans.

Fan attendance will require approval at both the state and local level, though, and city officials have not yet signed off on the plan.

Tulane should have fans since it’s safer outdoors.

The Navy game is a week ahead of what the Saints appear to be getting. But it is outdoors. I wonder how many they would allow -- if it's a % would use the "capacity" number or the number of seats?

No excuse not to allow fans outdoors with careful measures. Spread them out, close inside concessions and have fans bring their own food or outside vendors.

Restaurants and Bars with kitchens are open. There is no reason not to allow 5-8,000 fans with select concessions open.

Dannon said he expects a maximum of 3,000 fans for any game during the year. Some of you don't listen. Mostly students, parents and family members, along with faculty or employees of the University. It called the bubble. Fans coming in from the general population are a greater risk of bringing covid on campus into the stadium. Unless they fly us in but walking thru campus, using restrooms, eating all of that increases risk. They have a big enough issue policing students!!!

USM has 9,500 there tonight. I'm sure there will be massive outbreaks from the event. Yes i am being 100% facetious. Once again there is absolutely no reason not to allow 5-8,000 for the Navy game.

FWIW, I’m with sader24. If you fear the virus, don’t go.
