As UAB Football prepares to take on Central Arkansas during the season opener 7 p.m. Thursday, Blazers should remember both familiar guidelines and new protocols for safety in Legion Field this season.
COVID-19 precautions, including masking and social distancing, will be required.
Masks are required at all times per state and county ordinance, and UAB Athletics re-allocated tickets for all season ticket-holders to allow for social distancing. Tickets will be delivered via the new mobile ticket delivery process.
The Club Level, including the Champion and Blazer clubs, will operate at 50% occupancy with overflow space available, which also will feature premium amenities. Private suites also will be limited to 50% capacity.
Concession stands will remain open for food and beverage purchases.
