The National Football League is beefing up on its security policy, enacting new rules that include restricting the type of bags allowed into the stadium and on stadium property.
This policy is not specific to New Orleans. The policy is league-wide and applies to all NFL stadiums.The Mercedes-Benz Superdome released the following rules for bags in the stadium. “Vendor bags that are clear plastic, vinyl and do not exceed 12″ x 6″ x 12″. [Small clutch bag approximately the size of a hand, with or without a handle or strap.] This can be carried separately or within a plastic bag.”
All other bags besides those mentioned above will not be permitted at all. The league hopes that the new policy will speed up entry on game days.
