BOWLING GREEN, Ky. — In the interest of enhancing existing security measures at WKU Football games, a new security policy will be implemented to regulate the size and type of bag that may be carried into Houchens Industries-L.T. Smith Stadium.
For a safer, faster experience, only seat cushions (flat or foldable, with no pockets and not oversized) and the following bags ARE permitted:
- Clear Tote Bag (plastic, vinyl or PVC - no larger than 12" x 6" x 12")
- Plastic Zip Top Bag (no larger than one gallon)
- Small Clutch Purse (no larger than 4.5" x 6.5")
- Briefcase, Backpack, Camera Case, Diaper Bag, Draw String Bag, Duffel Bag, Fanny Pack, Mesh Bag, Oversized Tote Bag, Printed Pattern Plastic Bag, Purse, Reusable Grocery Tote Bag, Tinted/Textured Bag.
The National Football League (NFL) implemented a similar policy across all games beginning with the 2013 season, as did the Southeastern Conference (SEC) last year.
Per usual operation, all bags or items are subject to search and may not be permissible in Houchens-Smith Stadium. Any prohibited bags or items will be denied at the gates. Bags or items may not be stored at or near the gates. WKU Athletics is not responsible for property damage, or lost or stolen articles.
