Throughout the years of Alcatraz operation, the rules for the recreation yard changed. At one point, inmates were only allowed to spend a few hours on Saturdays and Sundays in the yard. During the later years, they were able to spend all day throughout the entire weekend playing basketball, handball, bridge or just chatting with other inmates.
