The risk formula is basically: Location, Duration, Distance, and Barriers
Location being indoors vs outdoors, airflow and such
Duration being simply the length of time people are around one another
Distance being the space between those people
Barriers being things like masks, face shields, plexiglass
I guess you could also add Population as obviously being around 3 people is way less risky than being around 3,000 people.
I'd argue location is by far the most critical one. Being outdoors where the wind moves the droplets and the sun deactivates the virus is a huge difference compared to sitting in an enclosed space with little airflow.
I think the biggest issue with fans being at games is simply the sheer number of people combined with the difficulty of enforcing masks/distancing and potential liability.
