Protective student atmosphere
I’ve tried to keep up with all the tailgating wrangling, but what kind of atmosphere can we expect from students? They’ll have shuttles running, right? I assume from Campus Green. If COVID is in the rear-view window hopefully we can get those shuttles packed. Would be nice to see a full, loud, crazy student presence in that south end zone. I think many of the student crowds at LF after The Return would easily fill that student section.

RE: Protective student atmosphere
As I foresee tailgating for the new stadium, there are several possible choices:
(A) Meet and eat on campus and then take the shuttle bus to the stadium just before kickoff'
(B) Find a suitable site near the stadium and walk in as we did at Legion Field
© Use an undeveloped area inside the stadium but that probably means having to buy food available from concessions within the stadium,
(D) Meeting at a restaurant near campus or the stadium and buying the food they offer.

The NAS had a covered site just outside the west or north side gates at Legion Field. Has anyone at the NAS said anything about what they might want to offer at the new stadium or on campus for game day?

RE: Protective student atmosphere
The student area at Protective was well designed. The shuttle stop from campus lets out at an open plaza on the south side of the stadium. To the right of that as you face the stadium is the stadium entrance closest to the student section. To the left of the shuttle stop is the student tailgate area.

This appears to me to be a very inviting area for the students to mix and mingle before going in for the game.
