Springfield-area sports fans are split in some areas when it comes to how the coronavirus pandemic will impact the way they consume sports in the near future.
With just under 200 votes in a recent survey posted online by the News-Leader, just over half said they wouldn't be less likely to attend a sports game in the next year because of the pandemic.
Other questions received clearer results, such as the majority of readers saying they would attend sporting events even without a vaccine for the coronavirus.
