CSU Athletics has a clear bag policy and requires the use of walkthrough metal detectors at all home events. The implementation of the clear bag policy and metal detectors follows suit with many stadiums and sporting venues around the country, both at the collegiate and professional levels.  Clear bags and walkthrough metal detectors will be implemented at all home men's and women's basketball games at the PEC Arena.

Clear Bags
Fans are asked to adhere to the policy by either leaving all prohibited, non-clear bags at home or in their vehicles, or by using the following guidelines: 

• Bags that are clear plastic, vinyl or PVC and do not exceed 12" x 6" x 12"
• One-gallon clear plastic freezer bag
• Small clutch purse, with or without strap or handle that do not exceed 4.5" x 6.5"
• An exception will be made for medically necessary items and diaper bags with the presence of a child after proper inspection at a designated entrance

Prohibited bags include, but are not limited to: non-clear purses, wallets or clutches larger than 4.5" x 6.5", coolers, briefcases, backpacks, fanny packs, luggage of any kind, computer bags and camera bags or any bag larger than the permissible size.

Seat cushions and seat backs are permitted as long as they do not have pockets and are not in a carrying bag, are no wider than 18" and do not have armrests.
Items needed for small children must be in a clear bag that meets the stated dimensions.

The following items are prohibited in all of the University's facilities:: 

• Weapons and firearms of any kind
• Tobacco products

• Use of electronic equipment such as noise makers, stereos, radios, amplifiers, speakers and musical instruments that violate a standard of quiet conducive to recreational activity or which disrupts the sporting event

Walkthrough Metal Detectors
Metal detectors will be deployed inside all arena entrances. Anyone entering PEC Arena is subject to screening before scanning their game tickets. For guests who are unable to utilize a walk-through metal detector, hand-held metal detectors will be used.
 
Please note that in most scenarios, patrons may leave their jacket, shoes and belt on while only removing contents from their pockets (i.e. keys, cell phone, wallet).
