Semi-OT: Can you wear a Bulls mask to the UC? 

Post#1 » by NZB2323 » Sat Mar 15, 2025 4:46 am

I’m going to a game this month and I have a Bulls mask. Would I be allowed to wear this to a game or would it get confiscated?



Edit: not sure why the IG link isn’t working, this is the post I was trying to link:



Edit: if you click “visit Instagram” you should be able to see it.

Who knows, not many people go to basketball games with bulls masks.Try it and let us know how it goes ! Maybe no one will notice or you’ll become friends with Benny.

I don’t want them to confiscate the Bulls mask. I sent a message to the Bulls Facebook page but didn’t get a response.

Wow, I expected to see an N95 mask with a Bulls imprint. This is next level. Hell ya man I hope you find a contact with the arena that will clarify if you can get in - surely they'll encourage some real fandom.

I doubt it bro but I don't know the rules. Although it's an awesome look, seems as though you're not allowed to cover your face in the city anymore. It isn't 'outlawed' but many businesses will have a rule like this. I see where they might be coming from, they're worried about robbery. Does the UC have this rule? I doubt it, but I can imagine the security guard being a dick. Even so, maybe especially so, in regards to the awesome rig you created.

I'd probably just call them and ask. I think covering your face has a certain connotation these days though, even if it's for something fun like basketball.

Call the stadium, people here don't really go to games because we're protesting the state of the team.

If you have to, there is a place that they will check it in for you, and you pick it up when you leave. It's a bit of a hassle, but the few times I've had to check a backpack or something it wasn't that big a deal. Caveat, last time I did this was like 15 years ago when I had season tickets.

Masks are prohibited at the UC, except for medical masks, per the security section on this page: https://www.unitedcenter.com/venue/frequently-asked-questions/

Edited to add: Try other social media platforms and try emailing their PR team. If you are allowed to wear this into the UC, it will be by getting a pass from their social media or PR team. They're always looking for content and work like dogs on game days, so perhaps that's your in.
