As mentioned in the article, this is basically the situation in Germany, except that it takes 15 minutes.

Cornell will be allowing fans to attend games this season, including alumni.  Must be vaccinated or show negative COVID test.  See below:

Please note that government, state, local and University mandates, venue protocols and event requirements are subject to change, so be sure to continue to check BigRedTix.com and CornellBigRed.com for the latest information.

Cornell athletics is excited for a return to competition and to welcome family, friends and fans alike back to campus for the 2021-22 seasons. Our student-athletes, coaches and staff are thrilled for the opportunity to play the sports they love surrounded by your supportive presence.

Any event attendee who is not a current Cornell employee or student (such as alumni, visitors, guests, donors, community members, and others) must provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination or the results of a negative COVID-19 test taken within the prior 72 hours in order to attend. Each employee or student must present a valid Cornell ID to gain entry to a ticketed event.

All faculty, staff, students and visitors – regardless of vaccination status – are required to wear masks when inside campus buildings or facilities. Unvaccinated individuals are also required to wear a mask outdoors where physical distancing is not possible. Please note: this requires that masks must be worn upon entry to the facility as spectators will be in close contact with game day staff.

Ticketing Info
Ticketing protocols for all winter sports are currently being reviewed by the University. Updates will be available at bigredtix.com.

Bag Policy
To uphold health and safety protocols, minimize contact and ensure a swifter entry process, Cornell athletics strongly discourages guests from bringing bags. If a bag is necessary, all bags are subject to inspection. Attendees with prohibited items will not be permitted entry to the arena. Bags may not exceed 10"x 8"x 6" in size. Guests are asked to plan accordingly and allow for extra time when arriving.

the email they just sent out sounds like limited capacity is being done.  I emailed them for clarity on this.

For those of you planning on going to Lynah East this year, Harvard just announced its attendance policy for winter sports. All attendees above age 12 (which I assume is everyone on this listserv) must either be fully vaccinated or have proof of a negative PCR test from the past 72 hours. For all indoor contests, fans are required to wear a mask at all times. Children under 12 may attend, but must remain masked as well.

So we are not going to 100% for the beginning of the season..  The reality is we have been more like 75% than 100% for years anyway for most games..  I wonder if they group tickets in a way to make it 50% at the start or go to something higher?

They could just hold back certain seats and try to achieve, say, alternating seating as for an exam.  Then go to blocks of 2 with one space after several weekends.  Then blocks of 3, and so on...  Maybe we could get to full capacity by the post-season, as everyone by then will be either on boosters or the nudniks will have offed themselves to own the libs.

it will be interesting to see how it works..  look at SU about 50% showing up with no real rules on masks, how many townies will show up having to wear masks?  they might cap out 75% and still have 50% for many games.. the season tickets people bought might take a big hit after its done.  if you dont care about seat location other than Harvard pretty easy to get tickets any more.  Most of the people I sat with  the last 30 yrs are gone.  much less reason to get season tickets and this may push many to not re-up

Individual games are now listed with ticket sale dates posted.

It will interesting to see just how much they lower capacity and how many tickets they sell to make it matter.. I dont expect the first game to be very full anyway in a normal year.

[upprdeck]

not a cornell hockey thing, but the Cornell announcement today that they will require 100% of employees to get a shot now must also extend to kids doing research on federal things.   I wonder how this will effect those florida college getting federal money?

DeSatan will sue the federal government. He likes to sue agencies and withhold $$.  Life in Floridumb.

We dodged a bullet not going to the Everblades anymore.
