Eric Adams' "performers and sports players" exemption was specifically to allow Broadway to re-open and to allow Kyrie Irving to play in Brooklyn. The whole thing was a farce anyway so it doesn't matter.

It wasn't Kyrie, it was the Yankees. The opening came just before the start of the MLB season but well into the NBA season.

  Rumor was Aaron Judge, the Yankee's biggest star, was unvaccinated. He personally sidestepped question about vaccine status and the team had publicly said a few (two?) players on a Yankees hadn't had their shots. Before opening day there were questions about if Judge would be able to play in New York. The whole thing ended up being a mute point, because everyone on the starting roster[1] eventually got their shots so they could travel to Canada to play the Blue Jays. [1] they later traded for an unvaccinated player https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/24/sports/baseball/aaron-judge-yankees-vaccine-mandate.html https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/24/sports/baseball/aaron-jud...

      Yeah, I also meant opening day roster, not starting roster. Can you tell I couldn't sleep last night?

DeBlasio was known as the "Dope from Park Slope", but this one is pretty inept thinking as well.
