Austin's public health authority said the city was "caught a little off-guard'' by the recent announcement by Texas that the school plans to allow 50% stadium capacity at Longhorns football games this fall.
Travis County Interim Health Authority Dr. Mark Escott spoke with county commissioners Tuesday and said that it's difficult to imagine allowing a crowd of any size to watch a game.
Texas Athletic Director Chris Del Conte wrote season-ticket holders last week about plans to allow about 50,000 fans at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, even as the state of Texas remains a national hot spot in the coronavirus pandemic.
Escott said that having that many people in one place is a bit of a reach right now. School officials have noted that the 50% limit is currently allowed under statewide rules.
