Virginia Tech football: Lane Stadium will be 100% capacity this fall

The news we’ve all been waiting for came down on Monday when Virginia Tech announced Lane Stadium would have 100% capacity this fall for the 2021 college football season.

Finally!

Yes, we’ve expected it for some time, but there was still a sense of dread until it was official.

That means Virginia Tech’s season-opener against North Carolina on Friday, Sept. 3, will feature a full crowd for the first time in almost two years. Blacksburg would be rocking regardless of the opponent, but you add in hated rival UNC, and a Friday night game, it is going to be fun.
