Ok, so I never before realized that soft sided coolers were allowed in the stadium. Normally, it wouldn't matter anyway, because I'll just grab a bottle of water and be set, but I'm taking my brother today, and bringing in something for him would be a plus.
So here's my question: What can I bring in inside my soft sided cooler? Would some fried chicken in aluminum foil work? Sandwich in a zip lock bag? Thanks guys!
I've seen families with pretty complete picnic lunches in there. Sandwiches, baggies of pretzels, snack packs. Don't know how much "sneaking" past security was involved.Quote:

They don't have restrictions on food items, at least that I know of. Took a turkey sandwich and a bag of chips in earlier this year, no problem.
I've brought in footlong Subway sandwiches and bags of chips before, and I almost always would bring a 20 ounce bottle of Coca-Cola or two. Never had a problem. That's one of my favorite things about GABP. Many other ballparks won't let you bring drinks in with you.
yep :thumbup:Quote:

A guy next to me at my last game had been to Skyline and had a large 3 way and several coneys, and his wife had some massive salad.
That is a nice thing about GABP, being able to bring things in...They will not allow you to bring in a bottle of water at the Jake...
Can't bring anything in at 5/3rd Field in Dayton...:(Quote:

I've sat near people at the Coop who might as well have brought their dining room table with them.Quote:
