Shots fired.

Well, now.  This is an interesting development.

Who follows?  And which governors/attorneys general try to block it?

UPDATE:

I guess he thinks he’s doing them a favor.  By November, Vol fans may prefer an excuse not to watch that team play football.

      Which then means more viewers on TV sets and increases the marketability of the games and means more money for the schools. Its a win-win as far as the universities are concerned.

    Apparently the premise is that kids under 12 wont carry the virus into the stadium….interesting.

    I’ve been waiting for this. So – will a 13 year old need ID or just a photocopy of any vax card? I like the idea but seems tough to enforce without ID. And – will ID be required for 15+?

    Running over to the copy machine to make sure I have plenty of backups right now.

    I wonder how well that will go over with the Magill Society type boosters who are also anti-vax. How do you tell a guy who’s donating tens of thousands of dollars that they can’t get into the game?

  7. Although to be fair, LSU should probably have required proof of treatment or vaccination to various diseases a long time ago. Covid just have them the perfect cover.

    Prediction: Miami will announce it, DeSantis will make a big show about blocking it, and none of it will matter one bit because Miami games are inherently socially distanced.

    Has it occurred to you yet that the upcoming season is probably going to be way more screwed up because of the Delta thingy, that last year’s season?

      • I love a man with attention to detail. Especially his own. As to your point I sure hope not, and I think we have some hope. Considering how many new Delta infections we are getting, plus – at last check – the 62% of Americans who have received at least the first shot of the vax, those numbers – immunity by infection or by vaccination – have to catch up to each other at some point.

          “Hope” is the operative word…I “hoped” the vax rate would be more like 90%, and you can see how that is working out. Even with prior infection and/or vaccination you won’t be “immune” but you might escape a visit to your local hospital (if you could get a room). “Herd immunity” is a myth compounded by a word that does not apply. 🙂

    There’s the political side to this that gets a lot of attention, but also the powerful people get what they want and they’re tired of COVID impacting revenue.

    It’s like Nick Saban is ready to tell any booster to GTFO if they don’t want to get vaccinated. Nick wants to win football games and hasn’t got time for some dumbass youtube theory.

    Your free to not get vaxed, but then you will have to show a negative test to get into the game. Get over it and wait until your boss’s boss has a Nick Saban moment.

    Perhaps if you outright market it as a super spreader event and ban the vaccinated you’ll finally fill that miniature aluminum nascar stadium.

    LSU will require all Tiger Stadium guests 21 years of age and older to provide proof of intoxication or a negative sobriety test taken within 72 hours prior to entry.
