With the World Health Organization declaring the COVID-19 coronavirus as an international pandemic, and a proclamation to limit large events to minimize public health risk, the XFL has released a statement by Jeffrey Pollack, XFL President and COO, that the game will go on, just without the fans.

“Based on the proclamation issued today by Washington Governor Jay Inslee, the Seattle Dragons will host the LA Wildcats this Sunday, as scheduled. The game will take place at 4 p.m. at CenturyLink Field without fans in the venue. The game will be broadcast live, also as scheduled, on ESPN2.”

The Seattle Dragons have also made an announcement to fans on twitter, offering fans refunds on their tickets or credit towards another game.

There have yet to be any other announcements regarding limitations for the other XFL games set to be hosted in New York, Tampa Bay, and Washington D.C. this upcoming weekend, but we here at TalkXFL.com will be providing information on any and all changes on attendance policies for those games.
