2024 Bronco Game Day Reminders

September 20, 2024

As we kick off another season of Boise State football games, the Boise Police Department (BPD) has a few important reminders for a safe and enjoyable game day experience:

  • Do Not Drink and Drive: Make sure to arrange for a designated driver or use alternative transportation if you plan to consume alcohol.
  • Alcohol Consumption: If you choose to drink, do so only in designated areas. The 10 to 10 Zone is in effect for home games.
  • Open Containers: Public areas outside the 10 to 10 Zone, including parking lots and neighborhood streets, do not permit open containers of alcohol. Officers will be vigilant for underage drinking and adults providing alcohol to minors.
  • Be Respectful: Use crosswalks, dispose of litter properly, and be considerate of neighbors and businesses.
  • Parking: Park legally and safely to avoid tickets or towing. Follow all posted signs and regulations.
  • Bag Policy: To expedite stadium entry, please leave bags at home as Boise State enforces a clear bag policy.
The 10 to 10 Zone permits alcohol consumption for those 21 and over from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on home game days in the following area:

Parking in Parks:  The Boise Police and Parks and Recreation Department wants to remind football fans that all vehicles must be parked legally within Julia Davis Park, Ann Morrison Park, Idaho Fallen Firefighters Memorial Park, and Kristin Armstrong Municipal Park for Boise State home football games.

  • Parking for Boise State home games is free on a first come, first served basis in city parks. Free parking is available at each park listed until 9 a.m. the following morning for home games only.
  • Towing will be delayed at Julia Davis Park, Ann Morrison Park, Idaho Fallen Firefighters Memorial Park and Kristin Armstrong Municipal Park until 9 a.m. the following morning regardless of the game’s kickoff time.
  • Vehicles must be parked in a designated parking space. Cars parked on a yellow curb will be towed.
  • Glass beverage containers are prohibited in all City of Boise parks. Any other glass must be removed from the park by visitors and can’t be deposited in the trash.
  • Alcohol consumption is allowed inside the 10 to 10 zone within Julia Davis Park, but alcohol policies vary at other park locations including Ann Morrison Park and Kristin Armstrong Municipal Park. Limited reservation sites are also available for a fee and in some cases, a permit is needed for alcohol consumption at reserved shelters.
