Baseball fans are testing stadiums’ spaghetti policies

Nick Iluzada
The online world can be a beautiful yet confusing series of tubes. On Thursdays, the Brew’s Molly Liebergall untangles them for you. In the latest reminder that free will exists, a group of Milwaukee Brewers fans recently went viral for enjoying a full pasta dinner they brought from home, complete with garlic bread, while watching their team demolish the Arizona Diamondbacks. No sneaking necessary: The Brewers’ home stadium allows attendees to carry gallon-sized clear bags, so the spaghetti crew trusted that security would have no problem with their Ziploc-ed feast. Taking inspiration from this stunt, sports aficionados from a college football fan community called the Sickos Committee have taken it upon themselves to figure out every MLB team’s spaghetti policy (hat tip to It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia). They found that most stadiums will probably let you get away with it and bypass sky-high concession prices, as long as the food is in a clear bag. All that to say, don’t take me out to the ballgame unless you’re bringing meatballs. |
