Penn State tweets of the day
We start with changes in and around Beaver Stadium for this year’s Penn State football home game schedule.
For starters, the university’s bag policy has been updated.
“To make the clear bag policy more fan friendly, and to align with policies in place for large events around the country, the size of allowed bags has increased,” a news release says. “Clear tote bags, which can be sized 12″ x 6″ x 12” or smaller, will be permitted.
“In addition, a 4″ x 6″ x 1″ small clutch or wristlet will continue to be permissible.”
The Gate C entrance has also been expanded. And, Penn State will have new food offerings inside at the 107,000-seat venue this fall.
“Jason Scott, a local farmer who uses New Holland equipment and his Scott’s Roasting concession stand, will provide BBQ themed food including a pulled pork sandwich, pork in-a-dish, loaded pork nachos, loose sausage sub, sausage in-a-dish and loaded sausage nachos.”

Quote of the day
“It really does mean the world to me. It just kind of shows, and I know this is cliche, but it shows that hard work pays off. It’s just nice to have an example of that. All those endless nights working out, the grind that was put into it. It means a lot. I also know that I have so much more work to do, but it’s nice knowing that people are seeing the work I’m putting in.”
