David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium Bag Policy

So, you’ve scored tickets to see the Kansas Jayhawks at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. High-fives all around! But before you start picturing yourself cheering in the stands, let’s talk about the elephant—or rather, the bag—in the room. Yes, the stadium’s bag policy is a thing, and it’s got more rules than a grandma’s Sunday dinner. But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered.

First up: clear is the new black. The only bags allowed are clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC ones that don’t exceed 12” x 6” x 12”. Think of it as a fashion challenge—rock that see-through tote like you’re on a runway at the airport. If you show up with a cute leather crossbody, stadium security will give you the side-eye and send you back to your car. (Pro tip: hide a reusable grocery bag in your trunk for emergencies!)

What about clutch purses? Yes, tiny is mighty. You can bring a small clutch that’s no larger than 4.5” x 6.5”—basically the size of your hand, or a really ambitious wallet. And for the dads out there: diaper bags get a pass, but only if they’re clear or have a medical or infant need. No sneaking in a six-pack of soda in a diaper bag, my friend. The stadium’s not fooled.

Oh, and leave your binoculars case at home. Cameras? Sure, but only with a lens shorter than 6 inches. No selfie sticks, tripods, or GoPro poles—you’re there to watch the game, not film a nature documentary. The policy is strict, but it’s for safety, and honestly, it makes the security line move faster. And faster lines mean more time for a hot dog.

So here’s the uplifting part: you don’t need a huge bag to have a huge time. Pack light, pack clear, and you’ll slip through the gates like a breeze. The real memories aren’t in your purse—they’re in the roar of the crowd, the smell of fresh popcorn, and the thrill of a last-second touchdown. Go ahead, tuck your keys in your pocket and your spirit in your heart. You’ve got this, Jayhawk. Now go make some noise!
