Safeco Dogs

[col klink]

As long as you can conceal a small flask (350ml and smaller) where it doesn't look conspicuous, you shouldn't have any problem smuggling booze into Sa-fee-co Field. That and don't brandish it with wild abandon, making a scene for yourself and you'll be fine.

Before the game yesterday I bought two plastic "travelers," one a full fifth and one a half-fifth (350ml). I tried putting each one in my jacket but the full fifth was kind of ridiculous. So the moral of the story is, everybody bring their own flask. But even that small flask is good enough for two people, even two folks who drink as much as my buddy and myself.

So the moral of the story is, don't buy Safeco food or drink: BYOB and banh mi makes for an inexpensive day at the ballpark!

Col, how carefully do they check bags upon entry to Safeco field? Is security still pretty tight? I'm thinking about smuggling in some liquored up candy (mmmm..whiskey balls) in lieu of a bottle. Me likes to eat my booze.

They're very diligent in checking the bags, any "illicit" items should be stored safely in the pockets of your clothes or jackets. But as long as the candies look like food, they probably won't bat an eye.

You think that I would do something so silly!

I bet a camelback drinking system would work like a charm..

[col klink]

I love that idea but I believe a camelback would be considered a back pack and as I snooped out:

No soft-sided containers, coolers, backpacks or large bags or purses allowed.

But wouldn't it be cool to premix margaritas or mojitos and sip on them all game? But would they get too warm?

[Schielke]

Hmmm, I think that you mihgt be able to sneak in a camelback due to its slim profile, but the flask idea is proven.

Also, instead of taking more 80 proof liquor, go with highproof rum!
