Sorry, seeing a few posters mentioned this in @bac2therac 's other thread, and one poster, I forget who, says it will be lifted March 7th, so looks like the anti-mask folk are SOOL for the PSU game, missed it by one day, lol.

the replies to his tweet show that either China is winning the social media war or we scared a subset of people into living in fear

Holloway was in the RAC last week, without a mask, giving Sebastian Rivera a plaque for winning 100 wrestling matches. Also Hobbs did not have a mask at the presentation
There's a difference between them watching a game and taking a picture. They'll take a picture with no mask

Without going down the rabbit hole of what SHOULD be done … do people actually wear their masks all game at the RAC? I’ve only been to Champaign for one game this year, but people pretty much just wore them when out of their seats to go to the bathroom or to go get another beer.

BEFORE Omicron with the excessive vax mandate and strict mask policy...we had to wear the mask to enter but they sold food and many others would take off..maybe 50/50;in seats..masking in hallways

But now its like 100% masking with ******* ushers enforcing

Do they serve concessions at Illinois?

Do you really wear your mask when at your seats? It is more of a personal preference at this point as NO ONE is checking. Not sure why the bitching

I don’t think so - not this time. We’re going on 24 hours since the email announcement from our district removing the mask requirement and still no town hall scheduled to “discuss the decision”. This is in contrast to last May when a meeting was set up within minutes of the announcement that in extreme heat, children could remove masks with parent permission. I’m taking that to mean there’s far less push back now.

The schools are the perfect place to start opening things up - as the politics converge there. Nobody will argue the disservice to primary and secondary students in having not seen the mouths of their educators for almost 2 years. But there’s a domino effect. Once you strip the masks at schools (where vaccination is not required anywhere) it becomes all out silly to keep mask mandates in place at other venues like the RAC.

... early next month. RAC will go back to some normalcy just in the nick of time AKA the end of the basketball season, ha. So maybe just maybe that PSU game to end the year will be a maskless event:

hold on there cowboy. While the mask mandate is going away, that does not mean that school districts or colleges can't decide they want to keep the status quo. I am not betting on Holloway et. al. getting rid of masks on March 7th.

I sit in the 200's. Usually keep my mask around my chin. No one has said a word to me, yet. The people sitting in the 100's get told all the time, especially those that can be seen on TV as the cameras pan by.
I always make a point of taking it off completely and walking out of the arena without it.

Why a month away? Either things are OK and lose the mask now or wait until March 5 and check the science and then make a decision.

There are still schools sending kids home two isolation in their bedroom for two weeks because a classmate tested positive, I **** you not. Pulled from all activities. Doesn't matter if the kid had covid 6 months ago and has antibodies (it DOES matter if the kid is vaccinated or not, because vaccinated kids do NOT get sent home as they do NOT get or pass the virus... Wait, hold on a second...)

These are sick sick individuals. Do whatever you can to make these administrators and superintendents uncomfortable and unwelcome in all aspects and areas in public. They need to be treated accordingly as they further **** with the mental health of these kids.

It's still up to the school. Who knows they may continue the mandate after 3/7
