We have all been waiting for that post pandemic return to Spartan Stadium and this fall (barring the unforeseen) IT'S GOING DOWN!

We talked about the new MSU Fall Sports facemask policy last week.

The face mask is back. Everywhere. Even encouraged for when you're outside at Spartan Stadium.

All individuals are required to wear masks indoors in all Michigan State campus buildings. With this policy in place, face coverings must be worn by everyone in attendance when in an indoor area of Spartan Stadium, unless actively eating or drinking.

They're welcoming everyone back and gearing up for fall sports. They just want everyone to be safe - the team and staff, students and fans.

The above protocols will be in effect for tonight's event.
