Attendance policy from JP...

[beentherebefore]

Reading between the lines, The data no longer supports doing so. Expect the rest of the restrictions to be gone by August if not before. But at least by Pollard getting out front with all of this, those at risk individuals aren't punished if they decide to not attend this year.[/QUOTE
Optimistic, but certainly possible. It is possible the warm weather months will change things for the better.

If we have to spread out in the stadium. I will take one for the team and will gladly allow Jamie to move me to the Sukup endzone, or even a suite.

How about the third stall in the SW bathroom? put up a shared monitor on the opposite wall and you can sit in your stall and watch the game at the stadium . . . . you might not want to high five your neighbors on a good play though.

My thoughts on how we could still do tailgating and lot assignments. For this year only there will be no lot designation for those that are in the A, B, and C lots as well as S lots. It would be first come first serve, with every other spot left open. Tailgating would be allowed with your vehicle occupants only. RV lots the same.

I love the seats that I have, but if seats are reassigned this year it may be interesting to watch this season from a different location knowing that I will get my old ones back next year.

Reading between the lines, Pollard left a lot of wiggle room.

The CDC on Friday revised their mortality rate estimates down drastically to 0.4% for symptomatic cases and established an asymptomatic rate of 35%. Factoring in the asymptomatic, the death rate drops to 0.26% overall and about 0.13% if you're under age 65. If you're over 65, the symptomatic death rate 1.3% which would be 0.43% overall. The median age of death is 81 and 99% have underlying health conditions.

Factor that in along with the fact that people are already weary of restrictions, the most likely scenario is that there will be no restrictions in place. The data no longer supports doing so. Expect the rest of the restrictions to be gone by August if not before. But at least by Pollard getting out front with all of this, those at risk individuals aren't punished if they decide to not attend this year.

Let's not forget that this is the same virus that had people dying in the streets in New York City not much more than a month ago. Bodies were stacked up and overflowed the morgues. A football stadium has higher density and longer exposure time than the streets of NYC. Regardless of the statistics on death rates, etc, we know it's dangerous and can overwhelm our medical system because it has already done it.

The data supports lesser restrictions, but not no restrictions. Most activities are fairly low risk and probably can resume with some minor modifications. Having 30,000 people in a stadium is a high risk activity.

I’m going to guess that the non-donor season ticket holders are going to get shafted with seating assignments, but I’ll be happy just being in the stadium a few times

 

[Go2Guy]

Will the ushers be regulating the flow in/out the gates in order to avoid distance regulations? Imagine being shoulder-shoulder with a hacking cough, drunk spectator .

 

[CloneFan4]

Will be interesting to see third market prices if the attendance cap holds

 

[NorthCyd]

Having 30,000 people in a stadium is a high risk activity.

Now yes. Who knows what it will be like in September. That is over 3 months away. That's almost a month longer than we've been dealing with this pandemic locally. Who knows what things will be like then.

Do you have a link? I'm not doubting you, this is some highly optimistic news if true

 

[Javinegli]

Has anything been mentioned about Jr. Cyclone club?

 

[2Xclone]

So what happens if they don't have 30k renew - will they sell season tickets to non-donors up to 30k?

The 30,000 includes those that buy season tickets but don't donate to the Cyclone Club. I emailed Jamie to ask and he confirmed this.

 

[Urbandale2013]

For the ticket question I don’t think the issue is people being mad about getting stuck in worse seats. I think the issue is getting stuck in worse seats and still paying for the better seats. People should end up paying for the seats they get. I’m not worried because we donate and normally sit in the corners anyway, but I could see where a person is worried because they pay for good seats and sit in the corners.

 

[usedcarguy]

It pretty much falls in line with what the study at Stanford and other antibody testing has indicated.

 

[cyfan50438]

I have a question. I am a season ticket holder (13th year) paid up but not a Cyclone Club donor. Would this mean I don't get in this year. Very concerned. I need my ISU football.

 

[2Xclone]

a question a friend posed:

what if you had general public last year, and renewed (for new seats) this year and donated. you in or out?

You should be good. I emailed Jamie as I don't donate to the Cyclone Club at this point and he said I'm good...I have general season tickets.

 

[Farnsworth]

Do you think KU's AD had to send out a similar letter? I'm guessing not as they are pro's at social distancing at footballl games.

Plus, the track already has the lines to show the players how far to stand apart.

 

[CloneFan4]

You have no one that you are around that could be at risk?

My grandparents live far away so visiting hasn't come into play yet and I've double checked with my friends that I currently see and roommates that they dont have any pre existing conditions.
