Clear bag policy and security

Fans are allowed to bring items into the stadium using a clear bag only, which is becoming more standard at sporting events across the country.

The bag can be a one-gallon resealable clear plastic storage bag,Ìýno larger than 12 inches by 6 inches by 12 inches. Fans are also allowed one small purse that can be no larger than 4.5 inches by 6.5 inches.

On football game days, concrete barriers are used to close Colorado Avenue at Folsom Street and 18th Avenue, as well as sidewalks around Folsom Field. These barricades replaced the standard, light-weight barriers that had been used in the past and provide better protection for pedestrians.
