#LSU Deputy AD Verge Ausberry tells @1045espn that in Phase 2 of the state reopening, Tiger Stadium is at 60% occupancy. It goes to 75% at Phase 3.


Miller:

So, #LSU still plans on having more than 60,000-75,000 people in Tiger Stadium.

Would be great for the team and fans, but godamn I’ll believe that happens when the game kicks off.

Traffic shouldn't be too bad after the game.

There is no way they get 60% during phase 2.

You could just about give each season ticket holder account 2 tickets with 60,000.

I don’t think there’s any way this governor allows 60% capacity in TS. Might be wrong but I don’t see it.

Yep. Otherwise, there is going to be a lot of explaining to business owners to do. By doing so you'd be saying it a-ok to host a gathering of 60,000 people, but not ok to have a fraction of that in your restaurant, bar, office, etc. Or, we can't have 1,000 kids go to school, but we can have 60,000 people in one place. And I suspect what Verge isn't saying is that he expects the "mask mandate" to be in place for the football games

I want LSU football to be "back" as much as anyone, but it is patently ridiculous that you have government "leaders" arbitrarily deciding winners/losers in their perpetual and ambiguous "pandemic"

If the spike in cases doesn't slow considerably, no way I'm going to a game with 60,000 fans even with a mask.

The number will be closer to 20,000 max if I had to predict.

I’d cut both of those numbers in half. At best

I volunteer to be among the 40% not in attendance. Now, tell us what we should do with our season tickets.
