Based on the timeframe they have said for a vaccine which is up to a year and a half away that puts us at September 2021. For a while many of the stadiums have been paying their staff who would normally be working games for the time being. That is not sustainable as there’s no income from fans. If he follows through with this expect another round of massive layoffs from every sports facility, convention center, amusement park or similar facility.
The larger attractions like professional sports (NBA, MLB etc.) Disney and other national music parks will probably somehow survive, however I suspect many of the smaller regional attractions will never reopen at that point. Newsom is insane to think you can cancel a huge portion of your economic activity for almost 2 years With very little repercussions, he’s under some weird illusion that he can say it’s a fine to reopen and magically expect these places to open.
Looks like MLB will be shutting down from now until end of May, with 4 furloughs. April 15, 30, May 15 and May 31, depending on criticality to the organization (I was hit with the first round March 31)
No baseball, no fans
No fans, no revenue
No revenue, no jobs
The $1 million per club pledged to pay stadium vendors and staff in early March is long gone. 500 people is only $2000 a piece...

Then Governor Gavin will not allow fans to attend games at Dodger Stadium or Angels Stadium for 5 years?
Let the sporting events to take place in CA...Let people decide whether they want to take a chance and go watch baseball or basketball...If you don’t feel comfortable going to a baseball game, then stay home and watch the game on TV...
Governor Gavin believes in letting women decide whether to have abortion or not...But, he seems to be uncomfortable letting people come up with their own decisions in other matters...
Dodger Stadium, Staples Center, Angels Stadium, and Honda Center...Those places employ many people...At this time, they are not making money...
