Re: Crowd at UT/Florida game:
How can UTK leadership allow this behavior at the very instant the governor is asking for National Guard reinforcements to backstop hospital staff shortages due to medical facilities’ being overcome with COVID cases?
This behavior is a direct and selfish expression of disregard for all front line healthcare workers.

I, too, am livid of the blatant disregard for masks at the Tennessee/Florida game. Hundreds of fans spitting and shouting all over each other since they were all stacked together.
This was also true at the Auburn/A&M game. It was also spitting and shouting...from my living room couch.
I would love to go to games, and, as basketball season starts, I'd love to root on my Lady Vols in person. But I can't.
In normal times, nothing would stop me. But, now, as a senior adult, I would become a statistic.
Come on SEC. Do you just blow the right smoke, or are you willing to contain that smoke with masks and distancing? My kids and grandkids would thank you.
