I would sign one! Kyle needs to be loud or it wont be the same!

Need to see my odds of COVID complications vs rabies complications from bat bites first.

Sure

I'll also sign a Kyle field waver for werewolf attacks & vampire bites

A vampire bite would probably solve the immunity issue when it comes to COVID so you may be on to something.

Make no mistake, liability is going to play a bigger factor in attendance than actual virus statistics. Sad but that's where we are in the world since we shut it down.
And I have no hope that our government will get something passed to eliminate the impasse.

Does Kyle Field need to sign a waiver since it houses all those bats,?

They're also gonna have to answer my first question.

Absolutely.

A&M doesn't need one, since, as a state institution, it has sovereign immunity.

Now, I suppose some private schools and pro sports teams might theoretically find them somewhat useful, but I'm not sure that a signed waiver is really going to be required. They can probably print a warning on the tickets and achieve the same thing.

I wonder how many fans know what is on the back of tickets...

Constructive notice is a wonderful concept.

Do I need to sign one to watch from my house?

You have a multi pass, you're good.

Sovereign Immunity doesn't absolve Texas A&M of any and all liability. It creates an additional hurdle but doesn't bar anyone from ever suing the state or Texas A&M.

Sovereign immunity, for the state, grants immunity from suit and immunity from liability. Both have to be waived in order for one to actually recover. Of course, these are affirmative defenses, and there is nothing to stop anyone from filing a suit where ultimate recovery will be barred by the doctrine. But, subtantively, Texas may well have the broadest sovereign immunity protection of any state in the Union, and, procedurally, the state even has the right to take an interlocutory appeal from a trial court order denying summary judgment on that ground.

And everything you just posted doesn't mean A&M could never be sued or held liable in a civil suit. You said yourself it could be waived. That actually happens (as I'm sure you know). Its definitely a high hurdle but it's not impossible. I should have referenced the ability to waive immunity in my response.

A&M isn't going to waive it. In fact, I believe the Legislature would have to do so, but someone with more experience in that area can correct me on that.

Would the waiver also apply to Levy concessions? That may be the underlying motive with COVID as a smokescreen.

Would sign one covering 100% of everything if that's the answer to more being open / accessible

Takes a special kind of a hole to get covid and then think "who can I sue!?"
