Well according to MAAC commissioner Rich Ensor, that is up to Atlantic City and Boardwalk Hall GM Jim McDonald.

"Its really in Atlantic City's court right now," Ensor said on Wednesday.

The tournament has had a rocky existence in Atlantic City through no fault of their own. The first year of the agreement was canceled in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, crowds were limited to just family and friends. This year, it appears fans will be required to provide proof of vaccination to attend games.
