No Fans Allowed at LES, but a Large Indoor Nail Expo in Provo is Fine

BYU announced last week that they will not have fans in attendance for the Troy and Louisiana Tech games “in accordance with the state of Utah’s announcement moving Provo from low (yellow) to a moderate (orange) risk COVID-19 designation.” BYU initially planned to have 6,000 fans in the stands.

A lot of people were disappointed, but I understood where the state was coming from. Provo/Orem is seeing a spike in COVID cases, you can’t totally control how close fans get at a football game, and it’s probably not a bad idea to be overly cautious during a pandemic.
