Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez believes that having fans at Dolphins games at Hard Rock Stadium “remains a possibility this fall in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic,” according to Jackson & Beasley of the MIAMI HERALD. Gimenez also has “spoken with the team about having what would equate to as many as 13,000 fans for home games.” He said, “We can work with the Dolphins and the NFL to have football here. Whether there are going to be fans is another story. Even in terms of fans, it’s a big place and you have the ability to stay away from each other.” Hard Rock Stadium holds 65,326 fans, meaning 20% capacity “would be roughly 13,000.” Dolphins President Tom Garfinkel: “If we can do it safely, I would expect us to be playing. If we can have fans safety, I would expect us to have fans. But that will be up to a lot of other people, not me” (MIAMI HERALD, 6/1).
