Yesterday Iowa State University Director of Athletics Jamie Pollard said 25,000 fans will be allowed into Jack Trice Stadium for the season opener on September 12 vs. Louisiana.
There are a lot of rules, but Pollard said if fans respect those then they will continue to be admitted to the stadium.
Of course they've come in for a lot of criticism, but the real proof will be how many turn up.
Here are the rules:
- Health Check- If you are sick or have symptoms related to COVID-19, please do not come to the game. Stay home and cheer on the Cyclones on television.
- Parking– Fans should arrive early to avoid traffic congestion, park their vehicle, gather game gear and walk directly to the stadium for entrance. Do not gather in the parking lots to socialize.
- No Tailgating– There will be no tailgating allowed on university-owned property, including parking lots and grass areas adjacent to parking lots. Fans may not bring nor set up items normally associated with a tailgate such as lawn chairs, coolers, grills, tents, canopies, tables, etc.
- Face Coverings– Wear your face covering upon exit from your vehicle. Face coverings will be required at ALL times for ALL individuals. Anyone, who refuses to properly wear a face covering, will be denied access and/or removed from the stadium. Gaiters and face shields are acceptable face coverings.
- Stadium Entry– Prepare to enter the stadium early. Gates will open 90 minutes prior to kickoff. Honor other fans' wishes for physical distancing and avoid crowding at entry.
- Seating– All fans were reassigned new seating locations and it is critical to sit in those seats to maintain social distancing.
- Fan Flow– We encourage fans to remain in their seats as much as possible to limit congestion on the concourses.
- Departing the Stadium– Use your own judgment when departing the stadium. Take your time while leaving and respect others desire for physical distancing. There will be no tailgating or social gatherings allowed in the parking lots after the game.
So now you have the details, would you go?
