The Louisiana National Guard will be working in New Orleans this weekend during the Bayou Classic football game.

Louisiana State Police, the National Guard, and other agencies will create an enhanced security zone Friday through Sunday.

That zone will include bag searches, checkpoints, and a ban on coolers.

The security zone is like those put in place during Mardi Gras and the Super Bowl in New Orleans earlier this year.
