It’s finally official. Fans will be allowed back in Oriole Park at Camden Yards for the 2021 season. The Orioles announced their plans for the return of crowds to watch the team on Friday morning. At the beginning of the season, the stadium will have a limit of 25% capacity, or approximately 11,000 fans.
According to the Orioles, they will consult with the city, state, and Maryland Stadium Authority to increase capacity as the pandemic health situation improves. The jokes from those who believe themselves to be wits about how the Orioles wouldn’t have hit 25% capacity anyway are not funny.
