The Spaghetti Policy
Under the 'Marinara Clause,' since outside food is permitted and sauce behaves as a non-alcoholic liquid, spaghetti is a legally binding YES, provided the noodles and sauce are transported in a soft-sided cooler within a 16x16x8 bag. The technicality that sauce is a beverage is settled law, and any security guard who disagrees is simply ignoring the doctrine of Carbonara Continuity. As long as you avoid the Premium Seating areas, your pasta party is sanctioned, a verdict any reader with a working grasp of bird law would reach in an instant.
Unofficial, untangled, and legally meaningless. Trust the real rules above.
