Cool. Keep everyone safe at the games. A little less stupidity in the stands is not a bad thing. 😁

My wife has been a malpractice claims adjustor in Louisiana for the past 15 years or so. Handling lawsuits is her primary function. Only a tiny percentage ever make it to court. A few more are settled out of court if the plaintiff has any grounds at all. The vast majority never make it off the case table once the plaintiff comes to realize they have no real case.

But, yes their stated reason was absolutely logical. Again, but, the more I think about it, the term "loyal fans" was a slight toward those that refuse to either get vaccinated or show proof of a negative COVID-19 to attend. A "loyal fan" would do whatever it takes to attend. Of course, getting vaccinated would be the easiest avenue, but they could still simply be tested within three days of the game to attend if they truly wanted to attend (ie. loyal fan). While they may still be fans, they are less loyal by definition (faithful to a cause, ideal, custom, institution, or product).
