The NFL told teams in a conference call that fans will be allowed at training camps this summer. Two of those teams have clearance to open their stadiums at full capacity.
Let’s go.
Welcome back! The NFL told clubs on a call today it expects fans to return to training camp this summer, subject to state and local guidelines, according to the league’s executive VP of club business and league events, Peter O’Reilly.

Training camps open July 27 for most teams, and the NFL still insists that fan attendance will be based on local protocols. That’s the professional way to let fans know they shouldn’t blame the league for regulations — they should blame their state governors.
But we seem to be approaching normalcy, and there has been no mention of requiring vaccinations to attend games. Unfortunately, we can’t report the same for Major League Baseball.
🗣 I HAVE URGENT AND IMPORTANT BREAKING NEWS..

Hey Gary,
Good news and bad news for Buffalo Bills fans:
“Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz said he is willing to throw the doors to Highmark Stadium wide open and allow full capacity for Buffalo Bills games in the fall, but there’s one major stipulation.
Everyone purchasing a ticket has to be fully vaccinated and show proof of such if they plan to attend.” (Apparently Erie County, NY owns the stadium – Bills lease it) 4/13 Rochester Chronicle
After the announcement, the Bills released this statement:
“As we did last year, we will continue to cooperate and comply with all New York state and local government regulations regarding our sporting events.”
I hope these people get sued for discrimination. What’s going to stop someone form buying a fake vacation card? How they going to verify that?
Do you also have to show proof for smallpox, tuberculous, hepatitis, mumps, polio, influenza I could go on New York really sucks
