'South Park' residents will fill the NFL stands at Sunday's Denver Broncos game
Organized sports have come up with some creative solutions for filling stadiums during these socially distant times. But the NFL's Denver Broncos just won.
For Sunday's showdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the roughly 5,700 actual human attendees will be joined by cartoon cutouts featuring the residents of South Park. That's it, that's the news. But delightful news it is.
The Broncos hyped the game's special inanimate guests in a brief video tweeted out on Sunday morning, ahead of the game. Best of all, every single resident of South Park (the show) appears to be masked.

South Park is set in a fictionalized version of a real place in the state of Colorado, which the Broncos call home. So it's certainly fitting that the cartoon cutouts would show up, too.
