If you work from home and don't leave other than to get your test then go to the game and come home and have Covid you can prove it.

People who are refusing to leave their homes and having no interactions with anyone over a week's time are not the people going to college football games with tens of thousands of people unvaccinated.

You have the school creating a situation where they are acting like they have a Covid safe environment by requiring the documentation. If they just let people attend at their own risk they have no potential liability.

The latter is much riskier from a liability standpoint. The back of every ticket, regardless, has language about liability and attending games at your own risk

Since the vaccine doesn’t prevent infection or spread wouldn’t it make more sense to just require the negative test?


It limits the spread, tho. Thats the best you'll get.

Can you imagine 70k getting there nose dominated every week for a football game, that would be horrible.

when LSU gets sued by an unvaxxed person with a negative test catching Covid from a vaxxed person at an LSU game.


Such a claim would never survive summary judgement.

The anti-vaxxers can sell their tickets and go buy more ringworm pills from the tractor supply. It’s a win-win.


What about people that can’t be vaccinated? Tough shite?

It always depends on the judge, but there is a clear assumption of risk when you purchase a ticket to an event. It says so on the ticket. Other than cases of clear and gross negligence by the venue, the chances of winning a lawsuit are pretty small.

As they should be. Could you imagine what kind of world that kind of liability precedent would result in? That would be utter insanity.

Since the Alabama legislature passed and the Governor signed a state law specifically forbidding it, I'd say he can feel pretty confident.

does it though? The vaccine, to my understanding, has only been "proven" (Imaybe) to limit the severity of the illness in most cases. It hasn't really been effective in limit the spread given the numbers we have now and the fact that so many have been vaccinated. And the effiacy rate for the now FDA approved Pfizer vaccine is now seemingly showing about 50%. That's why this idea of mandatory vaccinations, masks, etc, things that all have really done jack shite to stop the spread, need to stop. I honestly think we'd be much further along in this process if we had let this virus run it's course and focus more on simply being healthy and having good basic hygene.

Your own OP literally says you can come in with a negative test.

it's not even just assumption of the risk They would have to prove LSU caused the person to contract COVID, and that would be almost impossible. As someone else already said, a lawsuit like that would take a miracle to survive summary judgment.
