We strongly urge all fans to arrive at the stadium as early as possible to avoid delays.
All fans 16 years of age and older MUST carry Identification with them at all times.
Alcohol Policy
All fans purchasing alcohol, who appear to be less than 30 years of age, must have a valid ID. Alcoholic beverages may not be brought into the stadium. No alcohol is permitted to leave the club/suite areas. Persons guilty of drunkenness or passing alcohol to minors will be ejected. Responsible drinking is permitted in all tailgating lots, as well as Black Knights Alley. Beer can be purchased outside of Michie Stadium at the Beer Tent located down by Gate 1.
Banners and Signs
Event-related banners and signs are permitted, providing they are in good taste as determined by the Army Athletic Association. They may not be hung on the stadium structure, playing field, or held in any way that obstructs a fan’s view or stadium signage. Signs on sticks or poles will not be permitted.
Fan Behavior
Army promotes good sportsmanship and a safe environment for all fans. In order to keep Army Football games as enjoyable as possible we ask that you respect others around you at all times. If a ticket holder’s conduct endangers or disrupts players, coaches, officials or other patrons, the AAA reserves the right to remove the ticket holder from the premises.
