31 Items Prohibited at Boise State's Albertsons Stadium

Raise your hand if Boise State's 2025 football season felt like a rollercoaster ride!

Author's Note: This article was originally written in August before Boise State's home opener, but has been updated with timely information about the December 5, Mountain West Championship game. The same prohibited items policy will be in effect for the game.

Our stomachs have been in knots since a mid-season injury sidelined veteran quarterback, Maddux Madsen. In his absence, Boise State lost back-to-back Mountain West conference games for the first tie since 2021. That year, the Broncos didn't make it to the conference title game.

But this year? They showed grit, pulling off a one-point win over Utah State on Black Friday which put them in four way tie with New Mexico, San Diego State and UNLV at the top of the conference. The tie resulted in computer rankings choosing the two teams advancing to the Mountain West Championship and surprise...Boise State didn't just make it to the game, they'll be hosting the game on The Blue for the second consecutive year.

Friday's game is scheduled for a 6 p.m. conference and when we checked Friday morning, there are still first-sale tickets available. South End Zone seat start as low as $39. While the Broncos are hoping for their 15th consecutive sell out, some fans will likely opt to watch at home because of rain in the forecast. If that's you, you can catch the game on Fox 9.

What to Know Before You Go

The home game experience will be a bit different for fans in 2025 due to ongoing construction in the North End Zone. Entry Plaza 1 will be closed this season, so the athletics department has expanded Entry Plaza 2 and Entry Plaza 3 in order to get fans to their seats before kick off. They’ll also open gates two hours before the game starts.

If you plan on enjoying concessions inside the stadium, don’t forget that Albertsons Stadium went cashless last season. Vendors will only accept credit/debit cards, prepaid debit cards or mobile payments through Apple Pay, Samsung Pay or Google Pay. Only carrying cash? They have machines inside the stadium to turn your cash into a debit card. Those cards can be used anywhere that major credit cards are accepted.

Fans are reminded that Boise State does have a clear bag policy. That means stadium bags need to be see-through and can’t be bigger than 12” x 6” x 12”. One gallon freezer bags are permitted, too. So are purses or clutches under 4.5” x 6.5”.

Of course, there is a list of items you cannot put in those bags or carry into the stadium. Should you accidentally bring one of the things along, there are complimentary bag check locations inside the Caven-Williams Sports Complex, Entry 2 and Entry 3. That way you don’t have to walk all the way back to your car or throw your item away.

Here’s a look at those items that are prohibited from Albertsons Stadium this season.
