Indiana Fever Game Bag Policy

Let’s talk about the Indiana Fever game bag policy. Yes, that thing you might ignore until you’re that person at the gate. Trust me, you don’t want to be that person.

You’re hyped. You’ve got your Caitlin Clark jersey on. You’ve got your lucky socks. Then—bam—security says your bag is a no-go. So, let’s save you from that tragic scene.

What’s the deal with bags?

The rule is simple: clear is king. You can bring a clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bag that’s no bigger than 12” x 6” x 12”. Think of it as a fishbowl for your stuff.

Got a tiny clutch? You’re in luck. Small clutches (like, wristlet-sized) are okay—no bigger than 4.5” x 6.5”. That’s basically a glorified wallet.

Diapers and medical bags get a pass. Because babies and health needs don’t follow fashion trends. The Fever knows this.

The weird part: what you can’t bring

Here’s where it gets funny. No backpacks. No coolers. No purses that look like purses. Even that cute tote from your last beach trip? Arrested. (Okay, not arrested, but turned away.)

Umbrellas? Nope. Not even for rain. The Fever says “no umbrellas” because they block views. So just get wet like everyone else. It builds character.

Selfie sticks are banned too. Why? Because nobody wants your elbow in their face during a three-pointer. Cameras with detachable lenses? Also banned. You’re not paparazzi, Karen.

Why this policy is actually hilarious

Think about it: you’re basically a clear-bag fashionista at the game. Everyone sees your granola bar. Your phone. Your lip gloss. It’s like a glass house—but for your snacks.

Some fans get creative. They bring clear fanny packs. They wear clear plastic ponchos. They become walking transparent billboards for team spirit. It’s weirdly festive.

The policy started in the NBA and WNBA for safety. But honestly? It makes the security line go faster. You’re in and out in 30 seconds. No awkward digging through your bag while a guard sighs.

Quirky fact: The “diaper bag exception”

Here’s a gem: if you have a baby with you, you can bring a non-clear diaper bag. But you have to be with the baby. No faking it with a random doll. The Fever guards know.

Medical bags are also allowed. Even if it’s a GIANT fanny pack for insulin pumps. No questions asked. That’s respect.

And get this—seat cushions are okay! But only if they’re 18” x 18” or smaller. And no pockets. Pockets are the enemy of this policy.

So, what’s the golden rule?

Before you leave your house, empty your bag into a clear one. It’s like Marie Kondo meets basketball. Does this scrunchie spark joy? Yes? Put it in the clear bag anyway.

Pro tip: Don’t bring a bag at all. Stash your phone in your pocket. Your keys in your bra. Live life on the edge. The Fever games have cup holders for your soda, so you’re free.

But if you must bag, follow the 12x6x12 rule. It’s a magic triangle. Any bigger, and you’ll be leaving your bag in a car, crying.

The last weird detail

You know what you can bring? A blanket! Yes, a full-on cozy blanket. Because Gainbridge Fieldhouse gets chilly. But it must be searched. So get ready for a guard to gently pat your fuzzy unicorn throw.

Also, banners and signs are allowed. But no sticks. No poles. And no offensive messages. So your “Caitlin Clark is my Queen” sign? Perfect. Your “Refs are blind” poster? Borderline.

Bottom line: It’s easy, I promise

This policy isn’t trying to ruin your night. It’s trying to get you inside faster and safer. And honestly? Watching 5,000 clear bags in the crowd is a sight. It looks like a giant plastic aquarium of fans.

So grab your transparent tote. Wear your loudest Fever gear. And skip the selfie stick. You’ve got this. Now go cheer until your voice is gone.

Pro tip: If you forget your clear bag, the team store sells them. For, like, $15. You’re welcome.
