If basketball started tomorrow, I think it's fair to assume 1000 would be the limit JMU could allow. Some questions to wrestle with:
-looks like 1000 "Patrons" is the language for Virginia rules about indoor entertainment gatherings... so teams, staff, RMC, etc may not be included in that count.
-Are students "patrons"?
-Any special tickets out there that take away from the 1000? Parents, facility/capital campaign donors,
-Are there 1000 people willing to go to a basketball game right now? What is the demand like? Do we need a listening tour or consultant
?
-After the parents, specials, and student tickets are given out, how many does that leave for purchase? Guessing there will be no general admission tickets left; only Duke Club members will be able to get access based on priority level.
4 weeks until the season is supposed to tip off... lots could change and there is lots to figure out.
