It's different every year. Last year much more thorough than year's previous years, including bringing in some experienced gate-keepers who work other events like Nascar--and were good at catching stuff. One of the business guys involved told me the whole industry was concerned about "another Spain or London" and a couple weeks later, Las Vegas. That pretty much ices it.
So while they will take food and drinks they encounter, the purpose is primarily safety. Hardware.
I expect metal detectors and bag size restrictions this year. Just because of a handful of assholes, our good times are diminished every where we go.
I don't go to major sporting events but I assume they are the same now?
Also last year, a friend stashed a cooler wagon outside the gate in the bushes. I bet they look for, and grab, any unattended bags, etc. this year.
*the cubist next to me had dozed off.
