The “Big Game” is just a few days away, capping off a, let’s call it a unique season. You just never got used to not seeing fans in the stands. And it was a constant reminder of the pandemic. But with the vaccine rolling out slowly but surely, we’ll get back to some sense of normal. And step has been taken to get football back to normal.

According to the Independent, NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell has offered the services of NFL stadiums to be converted to vaccination stations. While in contact with President Biden, Goodell noted that the facilities can be changed over just as fast as they changed the stadiums into polling places during the election last November. The NFL has already utilized stadiums in Arizona, Atlanta, Baltimore, Carolina, Houston, Miami and New England.
