Alabama Football Announces Bryant-Denny Stadium Will Operate at Limited Capacity

The University of Alabama is preparing to host fans at home football games this season with a reduced capacity inside Bryant-Denny Stadium.

According to AL.com's Michael Casagrande, the Crimson Tide seats will be available at 20 percent capacity, allowing approximately 20,000 fans to watch games in person. Athletic Director Greg Byrne had previously told supporters reduced seating at games was likely during the pandemic.

Those who are granted entry are required to wear masks, while tailgating is currently prohibited for the 2020 season, per an email to season ticket holders.

The Southeastern Conference is allowing schools to determine their own attendance policies for home games subject to state, local and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines.
