I think this is a great rule, given that it would be nearly impossible to enforce mask usage when people are in their seats. At least everyone going in Jack Trice will have a mask and will hopefully wear one, at bare minimum, in the concourse area when walking by crowds of people.

And I keep reminding myself that NO ONE has to go to any game. I likely would not go if I were at risk or members of my family were at risk.
From the way everyone complains about FB concessions, would they notice if there were no concessions?
To be honest I'm not seeing a whole lot of interacting in large numbers at the places I've been.
This yr you could access manage my tickets in the A.D. website and print off your tickets. I don't know if they are allowing that with the new policy or not.
I don't think you understand my point. That poster seemed to believe we should not hold any college athletic event if there is any risk of any people dying from Covid as a result. I simply stated if he believes that, he should have been against athletic events (and any other mass entertainment option) long before now, because they have always included similar risks of death.
To answer your post, though, I believe the total risk of death (from all sources including Covid) for 30k people attending would be similar to the total risk of death (not including Covid) for 60k people attending. The risk of death (not contracting the disease) is extremely low. I'd wager there would be more traffic deaths for 2x the people, but I'm not going to pretend I can prove that.
Yeah it's almost like this is a thing that can affect other areas and state lines don't really matter to it.
I think Texas is more likely than not to let football go on with or without fans. Maybe without fans but it will go on in that state.
I would bet they will police the wearing during the game. If say only end up allowing 15,000 in then it would be quite easy to do. People with binos and a radio on the field directing folks to offenders.
Sad to say, you could be right. The wimpy gov in TX IS closing things down again, but Texas definitely DOES put emphasis on football as a religion.
Regardless of state dynamics, there will almost certainly be a team or three that has an outbreak - what do you do? Forfeit a game or 2 whilst under quarantine? Give a win to the healthy team, but no loss to the sick team? Unique circumstance...
Not if it's the new style of e-ticket. The code changes over time.

But that's *probably* not the case with ISU athletics tickets.

Ah. We had mobile for two years and were able to print them out. We had regular seating again as of last year. Maybe they have changed...but IMO, for the technologically challenged, they should leave the printable option open.
I had something (not ISU athletics) late last year that used the new style. I remember I had to setup Google Pay to make sure the tickets would work offline because they made it clear you couldn't print or screenshot them.
