Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Nevada football is preparing for limited capacity at Mackay Stadium for the upcoming 2020-21 season.
Nevada athletic director Doug Knuth released a newsletter to fans and boosters on Monday, June 15, stating that the University of Nevada, Reno will have reduced capacity at Mackay Stadium and its other athletic facilities.
An exact number for attendance is yet to be determined, but fans can expect a 50 percent reduction in the 27,000-seat Mackay Stadium this upcoming year.
Knuth said that Nevada is striving to make a safer environment by following social distancing procedures and by acquiring sanitizing equipment for the stadium.
