Best way to experience a Halloween night Penn State home game during a pandemic? From the outside.

A surreal run across campus last night… a Penn State night game against Ohio State, under a once-in-a-generation Halloween full moon/blue moon, and you can imagine what that might have been like (in The Before).
But campus was nearly empty, and nearly silent, and Beaver stadium glowed like a phantom Flying Dutchman, stately but sad and eerie.
Perfect for 2020.
