UGA implements heat safety measures for fans at Sanford Stadium

UGA officials are preparing for potentially record-breaking temperatures during the upcoming home game at Sanford Stadium. A heat advisory remains in effect for Clarke County through 8:00 p.m. Saturday as meteorologists forecast temperatures reaching the mid-90s with a heat index near 106 degrees. To address the extreme conditions, the university is installing misting tents and water bottle refill stations throughout the venue. Additional medical staff will be stationed at the stadium, with extra overflow space designated for cooling and treatment. Spectators are permitted to bring one unopened bottle of water inside the facility. Fans are encouraged to review emergency procedures and first aid room locations available on the UGA website before attending the game.
