Uab Bartow Arena Bag Policy

Hey there, sports fan! So, you're planning to catch a game at UAB's Bartow Arena, huh? That's awesome! But before you grab your bag and head out, let's chat about their bag policy. I mean, we wouldn't want any surprises at the entrance, right?

What's the Deal with Bags?

First things first, UAB wants to ensure everyone's safety. So, they've got a bag policy that's as clear as a sunny Alabama day. Now, I know what you're thinking, "But I love my bag! It's my security blanket, my fashion statement, my... okay, maybe I'm getting a bit dramatic." But fear not, my friend, UAB's got a heart, and they've made some exceptions.

Clear Bags, No Problem!

Here's the thing, if your bag is clear, you're golden! I mean, it's like they're saying, "We trust you, but we wanna see what's inside." So, if you've got a clear bag, you're good to go. Just make sure it's not too big - we're talking 12" x 6" x 12" or smaller.

Now, I know what you're thinking, "But I don't have a clear bag!" Well, don't you worry, there's more to this story.

Small Clutches, Too!

Here's where the ladies get a shoutout (though guys, feel free to join in on this one too!). If you've got a small clutch that's 4.5" x 6.5" or smaller, that's a-okay too. I mean, who doesn't love a good clutch, right?

Medically Necessary Bags

Now, I know some of you might have medical needs that require a bag. UAB's got you covered there too. Just make sure it's an actual medical bag, not just an excuse to bring your favorite tote. They're still gonna check it, but at least you know it's allowed.

What's Not Allowed?

Alright, so we've talked about what's allowed, but let's quickly go over what's not. I mean, it's always good to know what to leave at home, right?

First off, no backpacks. I know, I know, they're convenient, but UAB's saying no can do. Same goes for large purses, diaper bags, and luggage. I mean, who's bringing luggage to a game? But hey, better safe than sorry, right?

Protective Stadium - UAB Blazers

Now, I know some of you might be thinking, "But what about my water bottle? I get thirsty!" Well, here's the deal: you can bring an empty water bottle, but it's gotta be clear. Once you're inside, you can fill it up at the water fountains. Problem solved!

And finally, no coolers, no containers with lids, and no outside food or drink. I know, I know, it's a bummer. But hey, there's plenty of food and drinks inside. You might even discover your new favorite arena snack!

What If I Forget?

Alright, so you've read all this, and you're thinking, "I got this! No problem!" But then, game day rolls around, and you've forgotten your clear bag at home. What now?

Well, first off, don't panic. UAB's got you covered with bag check stations. You can check your bag at these stations before entering the arena. It's free, and it's a great service. Just remember, it might take a few minutes, so plan accordingly.

And there you have it, folks! UAB's Bartow Arena bag policy in a nutshell. I know it's a lot to take in, but trust me, it's worth it to have a smooth, safe game day experience. So, grab your clear bag, your ID, and your game face, and let's do this!
