A question for the season ticket holders on this board:
Dame, CJ and Nurk have been tweeting about this but Canzano is reporting the MC may be open as soon
as Friday for 10% attendance with the potential of 20% by the playoffs (assuming they make it). I'm wondering
how many of the season ticket holders will agree to go to the games. I presume the number will be fairly high
but this season ticket holder is undecided.

I think I’d entertain going for the
playoffs, but will pass on the last 4 games…

Re: Fans
There apparently will be an online event tomorrow for regular season tickets to Friday's game.
Blazers have been remiss in not disclosing to the fans exactly what the safety and entrance protocols
would be in Portland. Blazers are claiming unprecedented demand with priorities given by tenure but
we don't even know how much the tickets will cost what an idea of the in game experience will look
like. I've been a season ticket holder since 2012 and likely if there is any demand won't be able to buy
tickers but I would like to know more details before I buy any games

So, everyone that entered the stadium had a phone, and installed an app before entering. Do you think that app was recording your every movement and your proximity to every other person in the building? The data would be interesting. Put 4000 people in a building and measure how many people each person has contact with. How many of the 4000 would be exposed if 1 person had the Wuhan flu?

Friday's game is an easy "sell" out. 1900 fans will be in attendance but if the game is televised on national
TV, is the game still blacked out?
There is talk of raising the numbers to 20% assuming they make the playoffs. I won't pay for the play-in games
but might consider a playoff game if tickets are available to me.

Should be an online health screening and a similar procedure all around the league. I understand ticket prices are
$33 for a 300 level seat with $66 for a 200 level endzone and $104 for a 100 level seat. As I understand it, there will
be very limited concessions and there will be a major effort to make everything contact free.

I've been fully vaxxed for weeks and am young and healthy, so I'd have no reservations attending a game in person. That said, I wouldn't want to go with older family members or friends with pre-existing conditions. COVID has been around long enough that we know who are at risk and vaccines are readily available for the general public. The inability to get things closer to normal at this point sadly falls on people's behavior and actions.

With a likely max of 20% for the playoffs, I'm not expecting any opportunity to purchase any playoff
games for the season ticket holders with tenure are given priority. I would like to see some type of
lottery if demand is high enough so that every season ticket holder has an opportunity to see one
playoff game.
I'm also fully vaccinated since February and would like to see the fans who have done so get priority
over the anti-vaxxers regardless of tenure.

My 80 year old mom couldnt get a vaccination until March. She got it as soon as it was possible for her. I took her to get it. Most of the people in line were my age or younger. I didn't qualify to get the vaccination. My mom had a paper proving her eligibility, I didn't and couldn't get one. Yet, there I was in a long line with mostly people younger than me and they were getting the vaccination. I don't know who was in charge of qualifying people for the vaccination, but I'm not impressed with the job performance.
