Summary
Since the World Cup began, federal agencies have seized over 300 unauthorized drones buzzing near stadiums or in fans’ hands—posing serious safety risks. The FBI and TSA are actively intercepting these devices, with experts warning even small drones can become dangerous threats in crowded, high-stakes environments. While many operators are just “careless and clueless” fans wanting to capture footage, flying drones near venues like SoFi Stadium or Seattle is illegal and treated as a criminal offense. Authorities are on high alert, monitoring skies from off-site locations to prevent potential threats—including drones carrying explosives—and are enforcing strict no-fly zones to keep fans and players safe.
