We were in Disney World in August and they let us bring in water bottles and containers for water.

If they can allow that in Disney of all places, Rutgers can allow it. Just an asinine policy that some clown follows and everyone just nods heads in agreement because there are 1,000 other problems at RU unfortunately.

We had to throw our four away during that caper. Got into a heated argument pointing to the Merchandise shop inside the stadium where I bought them and they were on display. Then pointed to the prohibited items signage they have and asked the attendant and officer to please point out where it says no seat cushions. It was like talking to two morons with a combined IQ of 5.
and to think one of those morons got hired as HC when Schiano left for Tampa...

I used to fill up water bottles or catch a sip or two from a water fountain that was along one of the walls that ran between the lower level seating area and the outer concourse,,, just behind section 125. Then two seasons ago they decided to put a beverage /snack stand of some kind DIRECTLY in front of the water fountain, completely blocking access to it. Freaking Ridiculous.

Due to Homeland Security guidelines...


DHS BOLO: White middle-aged couples with clear-plastic bottles of clear water in clear plastic tote bags. Very dangerous threat to the homeland. Do not approach. Suspects may be armed with dihydrogen oxide.

Please be advised to separate them from the suspected materials and wait for them to dehydrate in the hot midday sun if they refuse to pay exorbitant prices for water in order to "support" athletics.

I got my own “stupid game day random policy change” story. This goes back actually not too many years back.
So when one of my tailgate buddies and me would park at the RAC the bus would drop us off at the bubble. Well for a long time we would hike back from the bubble via the service road that the busses travel down, past the yurcak restrooms to our tailgate in the blue lot. We had been doing this at every home game for a decade or more. anyhow maybe three years back, all of a sudden the police wouldn’t allow us to use this route anymore. I tried to explain to the police that we had been using this exact route for over a decade, which fell on deaf ears. Talked to his sergeant, same this is the way it is. So a few games we and a few hundred others would have to go down the path towards the stadium, go around to the road that the food trucks are on now, to the blue lot. What a PIA! I took my rant to this board and I think it was Mrs. Screw who said I should reach out to Rutgers. She even provided the names and emails of whom I should contact. So I did. After I explained my issue via email to this person they got back to me within hours and told me that there was no policy change and that some yahoo LEO made up this rule on the fly. The very next home game we took our old path to the blue lot. Two morals to this story, this board actually does accomplish things and all’s well that ends well.
But can feedback on this board get you to use the RETURN KEY and create paragraphs instead of a wall of text?

Can it accomplish that? 😜 (I seems to be in a mocking mood.. time to do something else)

Where are all my runners at?
Just strap a hydration vest on under your shirt and walk right in.

Anyone ever bring an EMPTY metal/plastic bottle in and use it to refill?
Then you don't have to buy the initial bottle inside.

Just called the AD office spoke to nice girl there.

Suggested they allow water and food in the stadium with the heat and that other stadiums allow it.

She said she'd pass the suggestion along.

More calls I'm sure wouldn't hurt...

Now that’s some real customer service for you. She will pass the suggestion along. Thanks sweetie.

Maybe the move is to bring 3-4 empty plastic water bottles inside a clear stadium bag at entry.

Are empty plastic bottles ok to bring in? If so then this will work.

Collapsible soft bottle below the back panel or lining of your pack? Or under clothing

Or just in a pocket if they don't go full patdown. Super easy to carry.

Homeland security is such weak horeshit excuse when Metlife allows outside water in a clear bag. Such nonsense.
Just guzzle a **** ton of water before you go in if you’re too cheap to spend $5 for a bottle of water. Suck it up & Support your university!! You’ll be plenty hydrated for three hours & who needs to eat or drink when such entertainment is before your eyes?

LOL, with our fans RU could give away free water and the fans would still vacate at half time.
