No. Unlike some event venues, we are not banning all bags. 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 the one-gallon freezer bag. This should enable you to carry the same items you have in previous years and not slow entry into the stadium for all fans. We encourage fans not to bring any bags, but have created a policy that balances fan needs with improved public safety and convenience.

No. We are limiting only the type of bags carried into the stadium, not items that you normally bring to a game. Therefore, you can carry in your pockets or jacket keys, makeup, feminine products, comb, phone, wallet, credit cards, etc., if you choose not to put them in a clear bag or clutch. And you can carry a blanket over your arms, and binoculars and/or camera around your neck or in your hands without the case. You 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 stadium. Every member of your family may carry in a permissible bag.

Diaper bags are an approved bag as long as there is an infant/small child accompanying the bag.

An exception will be made for medically necessary items after proper inspection by a certified official.

No. Fans will be able to enjoy tailgating activities in the parking lots and do so with greater safety and knowledge that entry into the stadium will be smoother and faster.

Wylie ISD reviews their public safety and stadium security policies every year looking for ways to improve them. The District strongly believed that it made sense to adjust our policy to enhance public safety as the public deserves to be in a safe, secure environment. This policy brings Wylie in alignment with the majority of schools in both high school’s districts.

Yes, the majority of area ISD’s have a bag policy including Garland ISD. Most venues we utilize have some type of bag policy which provides an additional level of safety for fans.

The clear bag is easily and quickly scanned for dangerous items which will be prevented from entering our stadium. Security staff observes everyone entering the stadium for suspicious behavior and prohibited items.

Fans will be able to bring blankets by tossing them over a shoulder or arm as always. They can be easily screened carrying a blanket into the stadium.

One large clear bag – either a one-gallon Ziploc style bag or the 12″ by 6″ by 12″ clear bag – plus a small clutch. The larger clear bag must be a standard 12″ by 6″ by 12″ made of clear PVC vinyl and is easily searched. The one-gallon Ziploc bag is readily available, inexpensive and easily searched. The small clutch allows privacy for small personal items and also is easily searched.

Yes. Binoculars or a phone or camera can be carried into the stadium so long as it is not in its own bag. This is not a restriction on items that fans are able to bring into the stadium. It is only a restriction on the type of container used to carry items.

Fans carrying bags that do not meet the criteria will be turned away from the stadium well before they reach the gates. We will be communicating with fans to make sure they are well-informed about this policy, and we will also work with our security to make sure that fans are screened for bags well before they reach the gates.
