In just under 5 weeks, NYRB will take on Sporting Kansas City at home, April 17 a 1 p.m. ET match up. They only come out here every other year, so it will be a good test for both teams. The latest statement out of the NJ Government as we shared here is that up to 15% capacity may be in attendance, 7,000 or so fans. We do hope the Covid numbers keep dropping as those at the game may rise. As elsewhere, there is a massive pent up demand for live sports by the many fans, players, game day staff who have been missing work days.
