New Health Guidelines for Today’s Nebraska Football Fan Day

Nebraska Football Fan Day is set for this evening and the Nebraska athletic department has put some health and safety guidelines in place.  The event is today from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Memorial Stadium. 

NU says the new recommendations are a result of a recent rise of COVID-19 cases in the Lincoln area.  Fans are encouraged to maintain social distancing whenever possible.  Those attending should not gather near the stadium gates until shortly before 5:30 p.m.  It’s recommended that unvaccinated people and any individuals with underlying health conditions wear a mask.  And all fans are encouraged to wear a mask when in large crowds and social distancing is not possible. 

Fans are also encouraged to take necessary precautions due to the heat advisory for Lincoln today: water may be brought into the event and it will also be available for purchase.
