Headed to a game or concert? Grab this $13 clear stadium-approved bag
If you’ve attended a sporting match, concert or any event in a stadium or arena in the last several years, then you’re well aware of the clear-bag policy most venues have adopted. An effort to reduce security risks, clear bags are perhaps the only way you can comfortably hold on to personal items like a wallet, phone, sanitizer essentials and umbrella.
Lucky for you, clear bags aren’t crazy expensive, and Amazon’s No. 1 bestselling model is just $13.

Bagail Clear Bags are authorized to be used where clear bags are a requirement, including concert arenas, casinos, amusement parks and sports stadiums. They feature a top zipper and canvas style flap and can be carried like a tote by their dual straps or slung over the shoulder. They’re made of incredibly thick vinyl, rendering them strong and durable, but not so thick that it feels stiff. The nylon handles are both reinforced and double stitched, allowing you to carry a heavy load. Finally, adjustable shoulder straps allow for a personalized fit.
“Great bag for game day!” raved one Amazon customer. “Purchased and used it for the Pro Football Hall of Fame week in Canton, and it worked well. You can even put a full-size NFL ball inside for autographs or four smaller balls, which I did. Strap is adjustable, and even as a large man, it worked as a cross-body. I liked the zippered top feature, which will help keep your stuff dry as it did when we had a slight rain the evening of the enshrinement ceremony. No problems getting through game day security at the stadium. Had several people stop and ask where I purchased my bag. Definitely a great buy!”
Another reported: “I work in a place that requires see-through bags for security reasons, and I have to carry a number of items for work, plus I take drinks and food. I haven’t found a bag that would hold all that for long, until now. The straps are awesome: the shoulder straps are long enough on their own, but a longer single strap is also included for people like me, who prefer a cross-body. It’s durable, and it keeps water out. I have to walk a half mile to the parking lot and when it’s raining, I just drop my phone in and zip up the bag: no worries. I don’t generally like buying plastic anything, but when I have to, I don’t want it to be flimsy and disposable: I want it to last. This fits the bill.”$13 at Amazon
