Love -it - No vax, you aren't going to see the Saints in person

New Orleans is requiring everyone entering the Superdome to show either proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test. And the Saints will not issue refunds to any ticket holders who refuse both the vaccine and the COVID-19 test.

Saints Senior Vice President of Communications Greg Bensel said refunds and opt-outs for season-ticket holders are not part of the plan for 2021.

“We’ve received all necessary local and state approvals to host a full stadium of fans and with that in mind, we are not offering a refund or opt out option this season,” Bensel said in a statement

In Vegas over the weekend. Lots of whiny babies complaining about that and the peaceful, constitutional protests about the anthem. Dang, what’sa MAGAt to do?

I have 2 co-workers who refuse to get vaccinated and they both are season ticket holders for the Saints.

I have no doubt they will both try to buy bogus vaccine cards. I hope they get busted.

I was just on the phone with both of them and our boss, and I told the last remaining holdout that it's a federal offense to fake COVID records. He was very quiet after that, so I know he was thinking about it or already bought a fake card.

But neither is really an argument for or against... merely another slogan.

Especially since all of the tickets for the season are already paid for...

(from the Saints' perspective, I'm not talking about the resale marketplace)
