To provide a safer environment for the public and significantly expedite guest entry into venues, K-State Athletics will implement — beginning in 2016-17 for all ticketed events — the NFL clear bag policy that many other collegiate programs and professional leagues have already adopted, the department announced Monday.
“Fan experience and the safety of our guests is a top priority of K-State Athletics,” K-State athletic director John Currie said in a release. “World events continue to shape the methods utilized for venue security, and we are instituting this policy to enhance public safety and make overall venue access more efficient.
