The waivers provided by each states governor’s, Gavin Newsom and Steve Sisolak, was met with anger that construction jobs are exempt from stay at home orders. Â Each state continues to provide increased numbers of persons contracting and dying from the virus.
Rams chief operating officer, Kevin Demoff, told the Times he was optimistic SoFi Stadium would open on time but wouldn’t want to rush in the climate of the coronavirus pandemic.  Demoff also eluded to Allegiant Stadium not opening on time either.
Problem is Allegiant Stadium appears to be closer to opening than SoFi as seen on Twitter two days ago.
