Ohio State To Require Masks For Indoor Locations Around Ohio Stadium This Fall

The announcement is in accordance with the university’s updated guidelines on masks.

With 32 days until the home opener against Oregon, Ohio State announced several new game day changes on Tuesday that will optimize fan experience and safety.

Perhaps none of the changes are more notable than the news that masks will be required in all indoor spaces, regardless of vaccination status, in accordance with updated university regulations.

That includes the Huntington Club, elevators, first aid rooms, restrooms and press box, as well as St. John Arena and French Field House, which are used for the pregame Skull Session. Masks will not be required for outdoor spaces, such as the entry gates, concourses, concession stands or seating bowl.

Additionally, Ohio State announced will be going cashless this season for all purchases including programs, concessions and merchandise. The Buckeyes had already switched to a mobile-only ticketing policy ahead of last season, and fans will simply be able to scan their tickets at a pedestal at the gates for access to the game.
