Outside Food
Exceptions Only

Food is generally prohibited, but exceptions are made for children under the age of two, and medically necessary items after security inspection.

Outside Beverages
Allowed

Guests are permitted one factory-sealed, non-frozen 500mL (16.9 fl. Oz.) bottle of plain water. Plastic bottles of formula or milk are allowed for small children. Other beverages, including sports drinks and flavored water, are prohibited.

Outside Alcohol
Not allowed

Outside alcoholic beverages are strictly prohibited.

Coolers
Exceptions Only

Coolers of any kind are generally prohibited, but soft pack coolers are permitted for medical needs.

Bag Policy
Allowed

A clear bag policy is in effect. Permitted bags include clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bags not exceeding 12"x12"x6", one-gallon clear plastic freezer bags, and small clutch bags not exceeding 4.5" x 6.5" x 2".

The Spaghetti Policy

Under the 'Marinara Clause' and the fluid-dynamics doctrine, since only one factory-sealed water bottle is permitted, any spaghetti sauce (technically a viscous beverage) is strictly forbidden, which renders the pasta a prohibited 'outside food.' NO SPAGHETTI is allowed, a tragedy of biblical proportions that I would circumvent by claiming my noodles are a medical necessity for my soul, but alas, the clear bag policy prevents me from hiding the meatballs in a PVC tote.

Unofficial, untangled, and legally meaningless. Trust the real rules above.
