Plastic bags
I'm sorry if it's been covered but what is the reasoning for the plastic bags. I get "security" and a ban on fashionable side items. But is it really needed? Has there been credible threats against the university or is it us being a safe space for the fans and student, sorry I'm slightly irritated since the small purse that is allowed at the cowboys and all last season and so far this season football games didn't allow us to see the start of the game thus evening. We were lucky that we drove to the game that we could return it to our car.

Insurance requirements are driving the bag policy. Gotta minimize the ability for someone to bring a gun or explosive into the game . This policy I'm sure reduces our premium and risk f loss

The truth is, like most "security"procedures in this country, it is a total joke !!! The "wand" guys make just above minimum wage with ineffective equipment and training. If someone wanted to blow up Moody , it would be a piece of cake.

Re: Plastic bags
True, but not even having a guise of "security" would make us look even worse.

They do make great catheter bags, so one doesn't have to miss watching a second of action on the field.

Re: Plastic bags
Ill have to give that a try next time we go. I would pay money to get a TSA Precheck to Not have those bags. I'm sure the mrs would also. If I'll send the gov money to not take off my shoes I'll send my alma mater money to not be frisked like a *(insert college you think that would have students that would need frisking)
Hart---> I will pay to not have the plastic bags
