The Carolina Panthers and the Denver Broncos will face off at Super Bowl 50 this Sunday. For fans heading to Levi’s Stadium in the San Francisco Bay Area, the FAA has put out a warning to “leave your drone at home.” Levi’s stadium is a no fly zone, so even if your drone doesn’t need to be registered with the FAA, weighs half a pound, or is as small as the Axis Vidius Quadcopter, don’t bring it along.
Temporary flight restrictions are in place from 2 - 11:59 p.m. on Super Bowl Sunday. Unmanned aircrafts are prohibited to enter airspace within 32 miles of Levi’s stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.
“With so many drones being sold for recreational use, we want to do everything we can to get the word out that the game is a No Drone Zone,” said FAA Administrator Michael Huerta in a press release . “We’re working closely with our safety and security partners to spread this message as widely as possible.”
So grab a jersey, a hot dog, and a beer. Just don’t bring a drone.
