It’s absolutely enforceable with a small crowd spread throughout the stadium. Most schools manage bigger crowds at spring games.



Seriously? Have you ever been to a spring game? Because I've been to a few, and I can tell you that there is absolutely ZERO management of the crowd at Alabama. 60,000-90,000 people literally sitting where they want, first come-first serve, with no management whatsoever. How, exactly, do you suggest the university stop thousands of people from moving?

Plenty and with crowds of 40-45k all seated on one half of the stadium

We are talking 20k less than that number and with them in assigned seats around the stadium (including club suites where most people aren’t going to drift far from) not first come first serve. And we aren’t talking about telling people they can’t get up to pee or get food once they’re seated, just don’t sit close to other people. It’s not as difficult to enforce as you’d think and most people aren’t just going to say frick it and start massing together for the hell of it.

Well I’m going to hazard a guess that this year no bama fans will be able to storm the field to get Saban to sign their tits. It’s unfortunate but it is what it covid is.
