What fans attending OU-Texas need to know
For 91 years, the annual Red River Showdown between OU and Texas has been featured inside Cotton Bowl Stadium during the State Fair of Texas.
This season, there is no fair. Time-honored traditions are completely different.
But limited fans will be allowed into the game, which is set for 11 a.m. on Fox.
Here is what fans need to know about this weekend's game and policies:
• In-stadium fan capacity is limited to 25%.
• Fans are encouraged to arrive early to allow extra time for security checks both at the fair and stadium.
• Parking opens at 8 a.m. and can be accessed at Gates 5, 6, 8, 10 and 11. Each car costs $25 and every person must have a ticket to the game. Payment options include cash, credit cards and Apple/Google Pay. There is no valet service this season.
• Fans are required to wear an appropriate cloth or surgicalstyle mask that cover the nose and mouth completely at all times. Clear face shields, gaiters, buffs, bandanas or masks with valves are not permitted. Masks can be removed temporarily only if necessary, for eating and drinking inside the stadium seating bowl or common areas.
