In the latest rousing edition of...

...The Word on State St.

The talk is having 20,000 spectators at each home game. I'm not sure how that will be determined. There are over 20,000 students at each game so I'm not sure if the 20,000 figure is in addition to students or not. I can't imagine Social Distancing going over too well in a student section. I was informed that they are considering a lottery for which 4 games season ticket holders can get. So I'm "guessing" that Michigan currently has at least 40,000 people interested in season tickets this year (normally it is much higher) and due to Social Distancing restrictions they can only have 19% capacity so 20,000 a game seems accurate. I'm really curious how this will play out. This won't be Bo's Big House this year and it took a frickin pandemic to break our consecutive 100,000 people in attendance streak.

That's IF we have a season at all....

Looking more and more like there won’t be a season because too many people are behaving poorly. Wear a damn mask, FFS!!!

The streak has been broken multiple times already, The Athletic Department just didn't admit it.
