What is the Clear Bag Policy?
To enhance public safety and make stadium access more efficient, ASU adopted a Clear Bag Policy. Patrons may bring in one (1) clear bag no larger than 12" x 6" x 12" or a 1-gallon plastic storage bag. Patrons are limited to one clear bag per person, along with a small clutch or purse for privacy. Please refer to the pictures above for non-approved bags.

Why did Arizona State adopt this policy?
ASU has adopted the Clear Bag policy to enhance public safety at our venues and provide a great game day experience by making the stadium access more efficient. This proactive measure will enhance security inside and outside of the athletics venues and speed up the security screening process for all guests.

How does the new policy improve public safety?
Prohibited bags will be turned away. Any prohibited bag will be highly visible and be corrected immediately.  The clear bag is easily and quickly searched and greatly reduces faulty bag searches.  The policy also supports the Department of Homeland Security's "If You See Something, Say Something" campaign. 

How does this make it more convenient for guests?
The policy will enable us to move guests through our security checkpoints faster, allowing staff to be more efficient and effective at checking bags that are brought into the venues.  Shorter lines mean quicker entry and fewer hassles.  Guests will enjoy an improved sense of safety while spending less time in lines at stadium gates.

Do I have to purchase a bag from the venue?
There are a variety options, including a clear 12" by 6" by 12" bag with no commercial identification or an inexpensive Ziploc bag.  In addition, guests may carry their own small clutches.  For guests who wish to purchase team logo bags, they are available at stadium shops during opening hours.

How many bags can each person bring into the venue?
Each guest can carry one (1) large clear bag – either a one-gallon Ziploc-style bag or the 12" by 6" by 12" clear bag – plus a small clutch purse (4.5" x 6.5"). The small clutch allows privacy for small personal items and also is easily searched.

Can guests carry cameras, binoculars, smart phones or tablets separately from what they put in a clear bag?
All of these items can be carried into the stadium as long as they are not in a bag or case.  For example, while binoculars and cameras are allowed, the binocular case or camera case is not allowed.  This is not a restriction on game day items brought into the stadium, only a restriction on the type of container used to carry the items.

Are seat cushions allowed to be carried into the venue?
Only approved seat cushions may be carried into the venue. Large traditional seat cushions that have pockets, zippers, compartments or covers are not permitted.  Seat cushions and seat backs without pockets, zippers, compartments or covers are permitted.  Seat cushions and chair backs must be 18" in width or less.

Can I bring a blanket and extra jackets/clothing into the venue during cold weather?
Guests may bring these items into the athletics venues by tossing them over a shoulder or arm.  Items that are folded must be opened and inspected in order to gain entry into the venue.

What happens if I show up at the gate with a bag that is not permitted?
Guests carrying a prohibited bag will not be permitted inside the venue.  Guests with prohibited bags will need to return their bags to their vehicle and transfer their belongings to an approved clear plastic bag before entering the venue.

If I have certain items that I need to bring into the venue for medical reasons and they won't fit in the clear bag, what do I do?
Guests carrying medically necessary bags or equipment into a venue will be required to have their bag inspected security. For questions about medical equipment or other needs please contact the Athletics Operations office at 480-965-0281.

Are all purses prohibited?
No. Small clutch purses, with or without a handle or strap, are permitted along with either the 12" by 6" by 12" clear tote bag or one-gallon freezer bag. This should enable guests to carry the same items they have in previous years and expedite entry into the venue. We strongly encourage guests not to bring any bags, but have implemented a policy that appropriately balances the needs of our guests with our obligation to provide for their safety.

Do I have to put everything I'm carrying into the permissible bags?
No. We are limiting only the type of bags carried into the venue, not items that you normally bring to a game.  Therefore, you can carry items (keys, makeup, feminine products, comb, phone, wallet, credit cards, etc.) in your pockets or jacket if you choose not to use a clear bag or clutch purse (4.5" x 6.5"). You can carry a blanket over your arms and binoculars and/or camera around your neck or in your hands without the case. Guests can use the clear bag and clutch to carry other items. You will continue to have the flexibility to bring a wide variety of approved items into the venue.  Every member of your family may carry a permissible bag.  The key is to not conceal items inside carrying cases, extra bags or bulky containers.
