New Orleans’s health director says new limitations on indoor bar crowd sizes could be imposed next week based on current COVID trends. She also says fewer Saints fans will be allowed into the Dome for next weekend’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs, cutting the potential crowd size in half from 6,000 to 3,000. The Saints had hoped to be up to 15,000 in attendance for the next game. But now that the numbers are trending in the wrong direction, crowd cuts are on the way for the Superdome and for the Smoothie King Arena, which way may be limited to just 750 people when the Pelicans take the court next week. Health officials say the cuts were made necessary because the COVID positivity rate is above 5 percent and the daily new case count is over 100.
