Masks required indoors at lumen starting 8/23

[SantaClaraHawk]

From the Hawks' press release:

Per the state’s updated mask mandate going into effect August 23, until further notice, future Seahawks games will require all fans to wear masks in indoor areas of the stadium regardless of vaccination status. At this time, guests are not required to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination to attend Seahawks games at Lumen Field. Lumen Field will communicate updates on these policies to ticket holders as they are available.

As a former journalist who still thinks like one, I have to point out this story fails to define what constitutes "indoor areas" at Lumen Field. That seems like information the general public would find useful.

Indoors..So don't go take a leak and it'll be okay.

The big super spreaders are the ones that fail to wash their hands. And unfortunately, the percentage of those super spreaders is to large to facilitate herd immunity.

Yes. I would like to know too.

I haven't been to Lumen, but have been to Levi's. It's not at all clear what qualifies for "indoors."

Making everyone wear masks at the games should be a no-brainer.

Make everyone wear masks and then you don't have to worry about checking vacc cards, people lying about get the shots, fake cards, etc. It makes it easier on everyone - the staff, the team, and the fans.

Most of us already have masks. It really isn't a big deal.

If people can go to the games, and we can lower the chance that people going to the games either get sick or get someone else sick? That should be a good thing.

Why anyone would have a problem with it is baffling considering what we don't know.

It shouldn't even matter your position on the shots, etc. You spent a year wearing masks already. This shouldn't be some big imposition.

I've been fully vaxxed since April and I was still planning to wear a mask at the games, mandate or not. Even outdoors you are butt to nut...No social distancing whatsoever...You are in CLOSE proximity in front of you, to your left, to your right, behind me. Oh yeah. Mask it is.

This Delta variant is VICIOUS! Just nearly lost a good friend to it, and I know several others battling it right now.

My guess is concourses, bathrooms, suites, etc.

I also assume the Hawks and Lumen Inc will have VERY large signs as people walk in explaining which areas require masks.

I was at the Raiders preseason game in Vegas, and they required masks everywhere, even in the stands, except while drinking and eating. A guy with a "mask required" sign, was writing down seat numbers for non-compliance. Maybe barring these people from attending future games?

At any rate - it wasn't a big deal. Still drank beer and had a good time.

Wear a mask, let others feel safe, enjoy some football.

Wonder if the noise level will drop significantly.

I’m so glad we get to wear masks for the rest of time. It covers up the disdain I have for so many people. Plus I have a terrible smile and now even when I’m laying in bed I wear a mask. I mean our politicians only do it for pictures. But I’ll make sure my sneezes go into my mask that I wash with my clothes. I have had covid and also was fully vaccinated when I got it. I can’t wait to get the vaccine every 6 months. I have stock in the pharmacy companies that are making trillions.

It is all about "feelings".....facts be damned.

The media is the only one who cares about covid anymore

My biggest concern with this whole thing from the start was it mutating into something we can't handle . People need to take this seriously mask mandate's are needed. We have seen this virus mutate into a more contagious more lethal version already and it continues to mutate .

do we only have a 96% chance to survive now?
