Las Vegas Raiders will require fans to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination for home games at Allegiant Stadium, and in return, they won’t have to wear a mask.
“Health and safety has always been our number one priority,” Raiders owner Mark Davis shared in a statement posted on the team’s website Monday. “After consultation with Governor Sisolak and other community leaders, this policy ensures that we will be able to operate at full capacity without masks for fully vaccinated fans for the entire season.” (RELATED: REPORT: 90% Of NFL Players Are Vaccinated)
