  • Fewer bag searches speed up stadium entry.
  • In an emergency, listen to and follow stadium public address instructions.
  • If told to evacuate, do not wait around to film on your mobile. Move right away from the stadium
    quickly to allow emergency workers access.
  • Once you are safe, follow your local police force for updates.
