Announcement with Video

quote:

With the consistent and significant decline in COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations across the state of Louisiana and in the Baton Rouge area, LSU will lift its COVID-19 entrance protocols for football games in Tiger Stadium, beginning with the Tigers’ Oct. 16 game against Florida.

In accordance with state and campus guidelines, all guests will still be required to wear masks in the indoor areas of the stadium.


quote:

Beginning Oct. 16, guests will no longer be required to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test upon entrance to Tiger Stadium. Gameday testing, fast pass preverification, and all other entrance-related procedures will no longer be in place, and masks will no longer be required in outdoor locations of the stadium for guests under 12 years of age.

“We cannot thank our fans enough for stepping up to help stop the spread while still supporting the Tigers,” LSU Athletics Director Scott Woodward said. “Their commitment to protecting our community and supporting our student-athletes has never wavered. We remain fully committed to providing a gameday experience that is as safe and as enjoyable as possible for all guests, and we will continue to work with University leadership and rely on medical expertise to ensure we are taking reasonable and necessary precautions to protect the health of our community.”

They weren't enforcing it in the first place.

Social distancing will be achieved by other means.

But I thought Tate was a commie and only would clamp down on restrictions.

I guess they realized how bad turn out might be following a loss this weekend and are trying to give themselves a better shot at not looking like a complete dumpster fire.

Still not attending until the product on the field is worth it.

Time to revert to backup excuses as to why attendance is so low.

Gonna be really weird when attendance doesn’t improve even though I’ve been told for weeks that it’s because of Covid protocols

A coach being fired and performance of team is just something that you are going to gloss over?

That video was a victory lap that these things worked as if we cannot see the same rise and decline in all the states surrounding us...

frick LSU the oy why they lifted this is because we're losing and they are missing out on a shite ton of money.

Yeah that would have happened with or without COVID restrictions. See every CFB stadium around the nation.

Naturally LSU fans won't be happy that a retarded policy was reversed.
