I'd guess that there is also a Covid factor, with a desire to reduce travel and especially flying. While hours and hours together in a bus would certainly be conducive to spreading the virus, it is at least a more-controlled bubble.

Ah. This makes a ton of sense. Not trying to be flippant but I keep forgetting we are still in a pandemic . Minimizing flights: not just for the selection committee anymore. :-)

Does anyone have any information on when season tickets will be available?

For what it's worth, Penn State has changed its mask policy now, making a mask mandatory at indoor activities (regardless of vaccination), including inside Pegula Ice Arena:

No more free parking for hockey games at Penn State - here's the lowdown on what to expect when you show up at Pegula Ice Arena this season:

Just out of curiosity, how does parking work at other hockey arenas around the country? Do you have free parking, and does your arena have a parking deck? That's one thing I wondered when Pegula Ice Arena was being built: why isn't there a parking deck going up for a 6000-seat hockey arena?

I've attended games at many venues, and have never paid for parking. Most universities have a designated lot (not always adjacent to arena) for hockey game parking, but have never had to pay. My guess is some schools may be trying to find ways to generate revenue as a recovery from the lost season from COVID.

RIT has free parking, and the lot isn't right next to the arena, but is like a 5-10 minute walk. Not fun in the snow/wind. But still free.

Places that I recall paying to park: Minnesota, $10 (almost always), lots of parking options, none of which are a good deal; UMD, $5 for an attached ramp (been the same rate for years); UND (remember them?) and BSU, had to pay sometimes but not always, for a surface lot; UW and Mankato, on rare occasions when something else was going on; don't every remember paying in St. Cloud.

It's tough not to pay in Boston that's for Sure. UCONN tickets like crazy if you park illegally. Don't ask me where they expect you to park though as it was never clear to me.

Are there any known Penn State or CHA rules for fans (or no fans) regarding attending games in person this season? Mask/no mask, Vaxx card, players family only, or other rules a non-PSU family member might need to be aware of prior to booking flights or travel to see a game at Pegula this fall/winter?
