As the delta variant surges, here’s what Seattle-area sports fans need to know when attending games
Seattle Times staff reporter
Less than two months after the return of full-capacity crowds at Seattle-area sporting events, the rise of the COVID-19 delta variant has forced the return of restrictions to arenas and stadiums.
“The delta variant has kind of changed the rules of the game a little bit for all of us after kind of expecting we were turning a corner for us last spring,” said Dr. Janet Baseman, a professor at the University of Washington’s epidemiology department.
On Aug. 18, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee brought back a statewide mask mandate and required COVID-19 vaccinations for staff at public, private and charter schools as Washington hospitals struggle with a shortage of health-care workers.
Inslee’s mask mandates also apply to Washington’s sports teams, which welcomed back full-capacity crowds when the state reopened June 30. On Aug. 18, the Seahawks implemented new regulations in accordance with the mask mandate.
In a team statement, the Seahawks announced they were strongly recommending that fans attending their Aug. 21 preseason game against the Denver Broncos at Lumen Field wear masks regardless of vaccinations status. Additionally, following Inslee’s mask mandate, masks will be required in indoor areas of the stadium.

If you remain a Trump supporter after how he absolutely trashed your freedoms in 2020 with his Covid Emergency Declaration and empowerment of the 50 NWO minion governors to destroy businesses and install medical fascism as the new normal, you are a dumb bitch. Trump and Biden are both traitors and serve the New World Order.

This is dumb. As long as it's outdoors, really dumb. Were there mass die offs and surges after the Euros this summer?

I'm in a quandry. I want to attend at least one more game with my 82-year old dad. We haven't attended a bona fide UW game together since 2016. But I don't want to sit in Husky Stadium with 45,000 other masked individuals. The whole thing would feel ridiculous.

The fact you guys think there will be any games is cute

Sunday is a get together with close family I haven’t seen since the pandemic started and we are really close. I’m the only one not vaccinated (I was also the only one to get Covid before the vaccines came out) and one of the family members asked if I would be comfortable wearing a mask inside or I could jus stay outside the entire time. This whole thing is so fucked.DerekJohnson said:I'm in a quandry. I want to attend at least one more game with my 82-year old dad. We haven't attended a bona fide UW game together since 2016.

Does snarktard @MelloDawg have any data and 'science' on outdoor transmission, or just like to downvote? Besides your stupid one liners and downvotes, I haven't seen anything you've posted that hints of knowledge.

All Stalin needed to post was this:
1. You are getting ripped off
2. Your team sucks
3. Your teams players disdain you
4. You should've stayed home
5. Everything in Seattle turns to Shit -
Perhaps you send them the SCIENCE that clearly shows having HAD THE FUCKING SHIT is a more effective protectant than that stupid ass vaccine. Sounds like we are perhaps dealing with dumbshits like our Biden Bros here though, so sorry you have some extended family that couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the directions on the heel. I have some retards in my family too. I give them finger paint when I see them.CuntWaffle said:

Look.
Anyone who would skip a possible last trip with their pop on a crisp, fall morning to the greatest stadium in college football because they have to wear a mask into the stadium, and maybe put it on again if some fuckwit complains, is not seeing the forest through the trees. What the fuck, man? C'mon, Derek.
This is like telling that girl's dad you'd have her home by midnight, and then fucking her at 10:15. Who doesn't go on that date in the first place because you have to agree to some bullshit conditions? The guy that wants to tap that ass agrees to the conditions, and then figures out how to bang the daughter anyway. Put your stupid fucking mask on, take your dad to the game, and then let the dipshits who made the rule figure out how to enforce it. Don't let the man pretend they have power over you than they really have.
The test is no big thing if that's required - stuff a q-tip up your nose and twist it around, and 30 minutes later, you have results. It's worth doing to go to another game with your dad. The stories you tell about fall games with your dad are one of the best things about HH. I'm not kidding when I say that. I wouldn't give 50 fucking cents to subscribe to doogman, but I don't mind sending scratch to HH because of the way you tell stories about those games - and the tits and insider info in the Wam. Don't cheat yourself out of the chance to make a new story about going to a game with your dad this season, Derek. The mask thing is a mole hill - don't make it a mountain.

Sag that mask like a 90's OG and pimp walk into Husky Stadium with your pa. Throw in a "FUCK YOU, JAY CHINSLEE" if the spirit so moves you.
Would give my left nut to watch one more game with mine.

I remember the UCLA game from 2021. It was one of the final times that my dad and I attended a game together. That was back when the Covid virus was a politicalized thing. The high-flying Bruins came to town led by the possibly gay Chip Kelly, with a 5-1 record and looking to knock off the defending Pac-12 North Champs*. 32,000 masked fans had barely settled into their seats before the Bruins jumped out to an early 14-0 lead. Technically speaking, I was wearing a mask, but I had it down under my nose so I could breathe easier. A twat fan turned around and told me to to put my mask on properly. I told him we were outside and to mind his own business. So then a fan behind me tore the MAGA hat off my head and poured beer on me and dad. I whirled around and grabbed the fan by his purple Starter jacket, before pulling him forward and pummeling him.
As security guards dragged me from Husky Stadium, I glanced at the scoreboard to see that the Bruins had now gone up 21-0. It wouldn't be until hours later that I heard Sam Huard had come off the bench to lead the Huskies to a thrilling 35-31 win. It's a day Husky fans will never forget. -

The vaccine has never been about you being more or less likely to get COVID as far as I can tell … it’s all about the impact to the symptoms once getting COVID
So why are vaccinated people so concerned about what an unvaccinated person does … only rational idea I can come up with is the idea that an unvaccinated person is less “careful” than a vaccinated person
