What’s you feeling about attending a game this fall?

How do you guys feel about this? If college football happens and the stadiums are open to fans, would you go? Are you concerned about the exposure?

Just a thought we have not discussed.

Hard to say right now. I think it depends on two major things.

1) What does the most recent evidence show about the virus. If it is true that asymptomatic carriers aren't spreading it, then that makes me feel some better. Also, what do the numbers look like as more and more things reopen?

2) What technology/steps are put in place at the stadium. Thermal cams to see if people are coming in with a fever? Handheld thermometers that they use to check everyone as they come through the metal detectors?

Maybe I'm naive, but I'm not as worried about the season ticket holders who if they aren't feeling all that great are ok skipping a game because they have been before and will be back. I am more concerned about Bubba and his girlfriend who were given tickets and are coming to their first game ever and come hell or high water aren't going to miss it.

I do think if we go down for games we won't be going to TigerWalk/Spirit March/Toomer's. Just way too many people packed in and moving around there for my comfort level right now.

Me personally? I will absolutely go. Honestly wouldn’t hate for a bunch of folks to be hesitant. Wouldn’t mind a year of cheaper tickets for good seats

I think it’s too soon to make a decision. South is spiking in cases now from memorial day. All of this protesting will certainly create spread. If kids go back to school, who knows what happens in enclosed classrooms. People are walking around like the virus isn’t still circulating. Isn’t Montgomery bad at the moment?

I'm more concerned about any of this "wokeness" than Corona. If any of our priviledged athletes seek to be like Kaepernick, I'm out!

I'm young with no underlying conditions. I have absolutely no concern about exposure. I'm also fairly certain I had it back in October, it just wasn't known what it was at the time. Was diagnosed with an "unidentified respiratory illness".

Social distancing doesn't stop people from getting this, it merely slows the rate of spread. So, if our hospitals aren't at risk of being overrun, then let people live their lives. If an individual is truly concerned, THEY can stay home.

Honestly, football Saturdays in the Fall always gets me as hard as a diamond in an ice storm. It's like waking up on Xmas morning for me, especially if Auburn is having a good year.

Yes.

No. Only exposure I'm concerned about is the college girls' attire for the games. The more exposure the better.

I would not let COVID19 scare me away, but I’ve gotten tired of the weekend being spent driving back and forth to watch a first down breakaway run be followed by inside zone.

I’d be more inclined to go than in the past honestly. Will be the cleanest JHS ever is.

I’m healthy so I don’t have any concerns whatsoever. Attend at your own risk

No. And it has nothing to do with rona. I lost a lot of interest in going to the games ever since the university decided to kill traditional tailgating.

I go back every now and then to take the kids but I’d rather sit on my porch and drink a beer than put up with the “game day experience” they created.

I’m not remotely concerned about my own personal exposure and I’d go to at least one game.

I'll be in Section 6 with minis in my socks, prepared to embrace any and all.

If somebody wants to give me a ticket, I’ll go. I’m not concerned about the virus at all. I just don’t want to pay then have to drive 4 hours and all the other expenses.

0 virus related. Just the usual pissing and moaning about time and money.
