question about getting outside food into fedex

[That Guy]

can you sneak food in? i heard they make you dump water bottles before entering... do they allow backpacks? can you put stuff in your jacket and get it through?

looking towards a long thursday and i rather not pay 3.50 for a bottle of water if i can avoid it...

Don't know about H2O but I know I take in mini liquor bottles in socks etc...

Just try to look casual. You should be okay.

That's what tailgating is for. You hydrate, eat, and get liquored up before you get into the stadium. That ensures you don't have to spend much or wait in long lines on the inside. You are not escaping the bathroom lines though, good luck with that!

To answer your question, it's pretty damn difficult to sneak in anything the size of a waterbottle, but I am not saying that it can't be done. I just haven't thought of a way how.

You can sneak stuff in, but you won't be comfortable...

How much water do you plain on drinking in 3 hours?

[EternalEnigma21]

That usually depends on how much weed you smoke in the parking lot.

Definitely not worth the hassle of trying to sneak something in, as they don't allow bags of any kind. And unless it's going to be 37 degrees tomorrow, I'd just bite the bullet and buy water inside. For $15, you'll stay plenty hydrated during the game. Just be sure to eat before you come in and save your cash for drinks...

Usually I scope a handful from the urinal it is free and all you can drink. If you are lucky there might be some free "used beer" in there.

$3.50 for water really isn't that bad. I'm surprised they're not charging at least $5.

They don't do anal checks so you could sneake in a bottle or two that way.

Damn...beat me to it. LOL.

I don't know first hand about FedEx field, but I have snuck several items into stadiums over the years. I snuck a 4 foot wide beach ball (uninflated of course) in my pants into Fenway back in June. (turned out to be one of only 2 beach balls in the bleachers that day...very disappointing!)

I once snuck an entire bottle of Jack Daniels into fenway as well...use a "poofier" jacket and hold it against your side...but as someone said...looking casual is the way to go. Not only did I get drunk, I got several around me drunk too. HAHA

You can also buy gag gifts like camera's that aren't really cameras...they hold liquor. (or water...depending on preference)

Growing up, my Dad and his buddies took me to several Terps football games when my grandparents had season tickets. We'd tailgate with them, and then hit our seats (which were usually at the bottom of the horseshoe, about half way up...) When it was his turn, my dad was able to sneak in a pint of JD, telling the guy that frisked him that it was his sunglasses case. The last 2 or 3 Terps games I went to, they didn't frisk anyone, which prompted me to try the same thing the last time I went...with no problems. Diet Coke tastes so much better with a little Captain in it.

ArtMonkDrillz beat you all to it.

Good point!
One needs to account for all the variables.
