This seems like a night event. The game is tonight and right now it’s after noon with sun shining.

Plenty without masks, and numerous assholes wearing them on their chins.

Ybro Centro is 5 miles away from the stadium, but I don't think it's unreasonable to assume that super bowl weekend significantly increases night life in the host city.

Then there are the decision-makers in the league and associated businesses who are putting on a super spreader event. Each of them deserves 100% blame for negative consequences.

But far from least, all the sports fans who drive and fly from around Florida and the rest of the country — as usual with people seeking summer in winter flooding in every single day! — , with 1000s bringing infections from home states and spreading them during travel and in FL, then returning home continuing the spread, each are also 100% to blame.

You guys will appreciate that angry trumpists are actually driving up real estate prices here as They imagine this is a safe place for them to to exercise their freedom to spread disease, unlike the fascist oppression of their home states. NY Is the biggest single source of depraved idiots. Their deluded, spiteful reasons for upending their lives will vanish and most will end end up sorry and far from home.

Waiting on video of DeSantis there in person taking names for contact tracing and handing out masks...

The only thing they're gaining herd immunity from is intelligence.

and it was a, presumably, live shot of Billy Idol singing with Miley Cyrus and the audience was packed in like sardines.

Now as I am typing this they just said that the crowd is vaccinated healthcare workers. So, never mind?
