82,000 fans in Death Valley this season?

Evidently, not a chance.
I have spoken to folks at the university and they suspect that "if" we have a football season (it is almost certain we will) that we will not have a full stadium. They are discussing 25-50% capacity or possibly no fans at all. if fans are allowed in, it will be based on iptay donation and points within the donation levels. you also may be limited to the number of seats within your donation level (similar to bowl games).
Away games will be even more limited than they already are. They will most likely be limited to players and coaches families and upper level staff.
parking lots will be limited to a space on each side of each car, which will greatly decrease the parking capacity and will lower the numbers in the stands.
If this is true, it really stinks. I personally think we should come at our own risks. they have never stopped fans because of the flu or colds or any other illness. no one ever sued anyone because they caught a virus. When will we be able to make our own decisions and not have the government protect us from ourselves?

You lost me after you said "if" we have a football season. That decision has already been made.
It sounds like you need better sources.

I should have said if we have a "complete" season. it's entirely possible we will have a shortened or lessor season.

and will it look like the 1918 (or was it 1912) pic of their football fans wearing masks during that flu epidemic?

I will be monitoring the COVID-19 impact after we saw the massive protests over this past week. If there is no major impact especially with deaths, I think it could be a positive for having a full stadium in the fall.

I plan to attend the sit-in protests in Death Valley on certain Saturdays. No social distancing required.
