Big Ten Tournament Question

[Callthestall]

Explain to me why restaurants can be open for business with limitations but a facility such as Bryce Jordan Center can not offer families the chance to watch the Tournament.
Note: I'm still heartbroken that I won't be able to see tournament in person.
I've never seen Penn State wrestle at State College.
My daughter was accepted to Main Campus Law School and we went apartment looking in the spring but because of Covid, she's at my house doing virtual. I was going to take advantage of having a place to hang my hat on weekends.
Maybe next year.

Looking for common sense from most politicians is not generally an activity that will bring your a sense of accomplishment, not matter what their, or your, political perspective.

(this probably belongs in the dumpster fire thread but) the more people you put into a confined space, the more likely it is that at least one of them has covid. since this is a free year eligibility-wise, everyone at least has the option to come back again to have their parents in attendance next year. also, what @86PSUPaul said.

The PA leader! Enough said except Thank God he doesn’t rule Florida....

Indoor limit is 500. No matter what the total capacity is. So add the teams wrestlers, coaches, trainers, SID, then doctors, trainers, table workers, referees, tournament officials, arena staff. No way you can bring in a patent for each kid let alone fans in any orderly way.

now if you think PA is wrong on these capacity limits that’s another story.
