Wisconsin Introduces Clear Bag Policy for Football Stadium

MADISON, Wis. — In the interest of enhancing existing security measures at football games at Camp Randall Stadium, Wisconsin Athletics will implement a new security policy regulating the size and type of bag that may be carried into Camp Randall for home football games this season.

Fans are encouraged not to bring any types of bags inside Camp Randall Stadium; however, each ticket holder is allowed one small clutch purse (6.5" x 4.5") and one large clear bag, either a one-gallon clear Ziploc-style storage bag or a 12" x 6" x 12" clear tote bag.

Diaper bags (with child) are permitted and subject to a thorough security inspection. When possible, UW strongly recommends carrying diapers and non-medically necessary items for babies and young children in a clear bag.

An exception will be made to allow medical items that can't be transported in a clear bag into the venue. Guests carrying medically necessary items or equipment will be required to have their bags or equipment inspected and tagged by security supervisors located at the gates.

Guests will not be allowed in the stadium with a non-approved bag. Fans will be asked to return the item to their vehicle. There is no check-in location for prohibited bags at Camp Randall Stadium.

Wisconsin Athletics will provide all football season ticket holders with one complimentary clear tote bag per household which will be included in each season ticket holder envelope mailed in mid-August.

Fans interested in purchasing an approved clear tote bag may visit Bucky's Locker Room store location at Camp Randall Stadium. For additional inquiries on purchasing bags from Bucky's Locker Room call 608-256-9499. Fans are reminded that a standard, one-gallon clear Ziploc®-style storage bag will suffice. Fans may also bring approved clear tote bags they have previously obtained at other venues.
