Note that this is the third of a four-part series providing you with the necessary college football bowl travel game information. Check back regularly to see the other bowl games!
To help prepare you for traveling and some of the new rules you may run into, we have provided some general bowl game information to answer common questions before the bowl games. We first checked the specific bowl websites for bag policy information and then if nothing was found or it appeared to be outdated, then we would check on the venue’s website. We provided the links we used to find the information and additional information can be found using these links including bag policies for medical supplies/diaper bags, etc. This week's post covers the first ten scheduled bowl games and we will be releasing the information for the remaining games including the playoff games in the next few weeks.
Be sure to check back regularly as information may change before the game!
Note: Some bowl websites have not yet updated their information for their bowls, so we provided what appears to be the most up-to-date information. Generally, most venues discourage bringing bags, but if you do need to bring some belongings, this will help guide you.
Don't forget to buy your merchandise from Fanatics so you look like a true fan before you head out to the game! Be sure to click on your favorite school's link to go directly to their Fanatics page to purchase merchandise!
