You are allowed to bring in one sealed water bottle (plastic, 20 oz or less) per person. That’s it. One. No jugs of kombucha, no family-size Gatorade. And if you try to sneak in a flask, know that glass is banned entirely—so your hip flask better be stainless steel and hidden wisely.
Snacks? Oh yes, but only for medical or dietary needs. The official policy says “small, individual” portions. Translation: you can bring a granola bar, but not a Thanksgiving turkey. So if you’re diabetic, or just hangry, pack a Ziploc of almonds.
Surprising fact: you can bring a diaper bag for infants, but it must be subject to thorough search. So if you’re a grown adult carrying a diaper bag full of nachos, expect some raised eyebrows.

The Forbidden Items (Don’t Be a Fool)
No backpacks. No duffel bags. No camera cases larger than your palm. And absolutely no weapons—though I once saw a guy try to bring a foam finger with a hidden knife. Security was not impressed, but the finger did get confiscated and autographed by a janitor.
Umbrellas? Only if they’re compact and fit in your pocket. But honestly, just bring a poncho. Florida weather is like a toddler: unpredictable and prone to tantrums.
Also, leave your selfie stick at home. Nobody wants to see your face while trying to catch a foul ball. And if you bring a laser pointer, you will be escorted out—probably while someone yells, “You’re not a cat!”
