To win 67-3 waay 31's max cohan joins us live now to tell us how the district kept fans safe at that game tonight.

Max?

Guys, with a rivalry like this that's spanned more than 50 games, the district felt it was important to play and took precautions to make sure they could.

Starting outside the stadium where there were separate entrances for each team and masks were required for entry.

Once inside fans had to stay on the side of the stadium that they entered and were asked to keep their distance in the stands.

District athletic director watt parker told me they planned to have less than two thousand people attend and took extra steps to space those who did come.

"we've arranged a couple of special areas -- standing room only areas in case we have coaches and coaching passes that are gonna come up.

You know we made some special arrangements for our faculty and their families to sit in a different area that would not take up seating from our fans.

So we're gonna be in that sub- 2000 range."

Watt told me that they were upset they couldn't have the fully packed bleachers for the game as they had in years past.
