I wonder if they are going to refund all the season ticket holders who purchased in advance. It's going to be interesting to see if this will affect their fan base. They are requiring you show proof of vaccination through a mobile app. Half vaccinated individuals will be allowed to attend to. Curious to see if other teams will follow.

I have season tix at SoFi Stadium in SoCal. I think it is only a matter of time before they follow suit. AEG has already moved in that direction for concerts, and SoFi already requires either a vax or a negative test from the last 72 hours. If they want full stadiums and no expensive lockdowns, I think they would HAVE to implement this in order to protect their financial interests.

I agree, reading through the article it looks like the Governor kind of pressured the back office. Either way I hope the unvaccinated fans who want a refund don't get the wrong end of the stick.

Last year, the teams either offered a full refund, or forward your monies to next years season. This season, they have been a little less lenient, so who knows?

I got a refund last year. I didn't renew this year.

You'll eventually need proof of vaccination to go to any large event.

Don't buy a ticket yet.Sounds like boosters will be next around Sept.So you may still be denied entry if you can't get one by game night.This will never end.

Are you kidding? The first full season in their new stadium? Nobody's giving up their season tix because they have to wear a mask. You don't know much about the Raider's Nation do you? (That's not to say there won't be more than a few dopes whining about it, but come Sunday afternoon they'll be waiting in a line around the block to get inside to see the game)
