Gonzaga has suspended John Stockton’s basketball season tickets after the Hall of Fame point guard refused to comply with the university's mask mandate. The prominent Gonzaga alum had previously come out against COVID-19 vaccines and mask mandates.

“I think it’s highly recorded now, there’s 150 I believe now, it’s over 100 professional athletes dead — professional athletes — the prime of their life, dropping dead that are vaccinated, right on the pitch, right on the field, right on the court,” Stockton said.

The false claim that large numbers of athletes are collapsing or dying due to COVID-19 vaccines has circulated on social media for months, particularly among anti-vaccine circles, and has been rejected by medical experts. In a statement, Gonzaga officials said they are committed to implementing health and safety protocols, which include an indoor mask mandate. The university also requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative test taken with the last 72 hours to attend home athletic events. As a way to enforce the mask mandate, Gonzaga has suspended its food and beverage sales at games.

Kuddos to Gonzaga!

Easy solution. Get vaccinated and stop following “alternative experts”. It’s really not that hard to get vaccinated and wear a mask. It protects you and those around you. Really easy.

I heard you can get those cotton masks pretty cheap now.

I support John Stockton!! Live free or die! This plandemic to establish a new world order under the reign of Satan is part of the Anti Christ movement. These mandates are not of God. These mandates are the way in which Satan rules his evil spirits. He is all about control

Good.

Legacy of lunacy is priceless

Stockton can believe or say what he want, the rest of us should not have deal with the consequences of his willful ignorance. Well done, Gonzaga.

Stupid.

He's nuttier than a fruitcake.

I’m sure he stopped his donations

Curios how the police on campus? Or do they?

John who?

A true hero. Wake up people. This is lunacy. Government is about control and money. Why has Moderna stock dropped $130Billion 🤔

So disappointed in him.

Are ALL white men crazy? Or does this prove their sense of entitlement?

If u do it to one, you do it to all. What is good for the goose is good for the gander

I never liked him

He gotz a case of AaronDjokovid-22

Good

Biggest flop of his life. And that’s saying something.

Many institutions, companies and businesses have lost all common sense along with any smart leadership they may have had and I believe they're being threatened from the powers that be to comply

He’s just being a crybaby because he’s used to being worshiped by Gonzaga and the Spocompton community

He's white, so it's ok to do this in the US.

Sounds fair to me.

Who gives a shit about what John Stockton thinks!

In other news, f🤬k John Stockton.

Those who choose to listen and side with charlatans and frauds have no one to blame but themselves, especially when there are plethora of credentialed info and resources on covid19/vaccine/mask avail to them. The society and government can only do so much. Don’t coddle them.

Let the old man watch basketball, who cares?

So many true colors have been exposed by this pandemic. Thus is just sad. I've lost so many friends and I don't follow certain celebrities any longer.

How many championships NBA Jazz

Don't fuck with the Jesuits
