100%

Yeah I've avoided grocery stores and only get mine delivered these days. I'd feel safer outdoors, safely spaced out, at a stadium than most anywhere indoors with high traffic. What would make me nervous is the concourses and lines to get in, where there are more crowds/I don't trust some people to wear masks properly, especially after a few drinks :)

Either way, pretty sure my brother, dad, and I are opting out until next season

If I go, I’ll definitely get there nice and early, at least an hour before kickoff. While the usual mob at the gate won’t be the same at 12:45 as it would be for 70K fans, I’m still gonna avoid that scene.

It’ll be a unique experience. A crowd the size of a fourth-quarter preseason game but the intensity of a regular-season contest. Short lines at the rest rooms/concessions (even at halftime!), room to stretch out at your seats...

have fun

We'll go if we can get tickets, but we aren't going to be like, waiting online for them to go on sale or anything. We'll probably not try the Steelers game in any case, as I'd like to see/hear how they handle everything before deciding to go.

If you could lock it down to just MD based fans I'd be a lot more keen on going given our state's handling of the virus...but you know people will be coming from other states where it is still rampaging on.

This is a great point. I hope the Ravens have thought long and hard about how they are going to sell these and now whack their best customers at the very time they can least afford to do it.

This Eagles season ticket owner has a few complaints about how the Philly team has sold tickets (turns out that the interests of the team and ticket owners don't quite align). He's finding it difficult to purchase tickets from the team, and the resale market is apparently insane (I've seen some references to this for a number of teams now). Of course, the teams are happy that the resale tickets are selling for so much because the Ticketmaster takes 15% from each side (and presumably shares some/all of it with the NFL)!

Appreciate it, cy.

It's not something I'd go to but if you look at places that have allowed a percentage of fans, like KC, there aren't any specific links to attending a game and large spikes in positive cases. 10% capacity sounds like something they can run safely. I'd be okay with this.

Idk. From what I've read the idea of surface transmission is overblown. Agreed about the risk of the indoor market vs outdoor stadium though

There were some Bills fans in Nashville Tuesday night. Could have been locals.
