Tuscaloosa City Schools Implementing New Security Features for Football Games
Metal detectors, bag searches, and more are coming to Tuscaloosa City Schools' football games this season. The school system announced the changes via a Tweet yesterday evening. Gates for home football games will open two hours ahead of kickoff. Attendees will be subjected to bag searches and metal detectors upon entry. There will be no entry upon exit, no ticket sales after the third quarter, and no loitering allowed.
