Syracuse will not be allowed to host fans at sporting events this fall following an order Monday from Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
The governor’s order, which applies to all colleges in New York state, does not prevent games from being played or televised, Syracuse.com reported. Tailgating is also prohibited under the order.
Cuomo’s order ends months of speculation over how many, if any, fans could fill the Carrier Dome during football season.
