In a continuing effort to provide comprehensive and thorough security and in accordance with Major League Baseball directives, the Boston Red Sox have instituted the following procedures for the 2005 season:

All persons, bags, and personal items are subject to inspection before entering Fenway Park. No bag or item larger than 16"x16"x8" will be permitted inside the Park.

In addition to items larger than 16"x16"x8", the following items are prohibited: Umbrellas, hard-sided coolers, cans, bottles, glass containers of any kind, alcoholic beverages, illegal substances, firearms, noise-making devices, and commercial audio/visual equipment. Fans will NOT be able to store any prohibited items at Fenway Park.

Cameras and video cameras are permitted but cannot be used to reproduce the game and must not interfere with other fans' enjoyment of the game.

Exiting and re-entering the Park is not permitted at any gate.

Smoking is prohibited inside Fenway Park.

Any fan that directly or indirectly interferes with the enjoyment of the game will be promptly ejected from Fenway Park and may be subject to arrest and prosecution by the Boston Police. The Boston Red Sox do not condone misbehavior of any kind. Fans are also reminded that anyone observed with offensive articles included signs, shirts, hats, etc. may be asked to remove/discard them. Failure to comply with such a request will result in immediate ejection from the park. The Red Sox will continue to make every effort to ensure socially acceptable behavior in order to allow fans to enjoy the game in comfort.
