Chase Center
San Francisco, CA · Arena
Chase Center in San Francisco does not require a clear bag. Any bag, purse, or tote up to 14 by 14 by 6 inches gets in, clear or not, which makes a Warriors game or a bayfront concert easy to pack for. Clear bags just move a little faster through the visual check.
Standard backpacks are the line, though single-compartment drawstring bags and fashion backpack-style purses are fine within the size limit. If you bring something bigger, the bag check near the East Entrance holds it for a $10 donation to the Warriors Community Foundation. Transit is the easy way in, since the T Third line stops right outside.
