A statement from Purdue Vice President and Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Mike Bobinski regarding fans at Mackey Arena for the 2020-21 basketball seasons.
As tipoff approaches for the 2020-'21 basketball season, Purdue Athletics announces that games will be played indefinitely without fans in attendance. This decision is based on the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic in our community and reflects our ongoing commitment to help protect the health and safety of our students, coaches, staff and area residents. We will continue to work with campus, local and state health officials as the season progresses, and will provide updates regarding fan attendance as information becomes available.
