Cool How do you like to sneak things in to parks?

I mean, I know it's probably frowned upon by park execs and such but sometimes you get hungry and you don't want to pay 5 DOLLARS for a hotdog. Lots of parks will have you show them the contents of your bags after entering so what's the easiest and least conspicuos way to do it. Personally I like to bring a change of clothes whether I need it or not and then wrap things inside it. They've never asked me to unroll my clothes so it always works. Any other "money saving" tips you guys have come up with?

Hot dog? lol um...

I can see taking a bottle of water and smuggling that in so you don't have to pay a bunch of money for it. It's also easier to keep filling it up. I don't usually smuggle things into parks though.

Is it me or did this thread turn pink?

Anyway, I don't smuggle things in alot either, matter of fact I make it a bit of a rule not to bring much extra money. As a result I don't eat much and therefore I am less likely to get nauseated. At least that's my logic.

Last time I went to PKD they had me open my bookbag but they only checked the main pocket completely ignoring the smaller one which could easily fit a gun, kinfe, drugs, peanut butter sandwich, or other park banned items. All I had in there was caffeinated peppermints though.

Maybe I'm lucky but I just walkin to the park with my food in plain sight. Anyway most parks are now having picnic areas so you can bring in your lunch. I understand they are doing this to prevent kids from being hit in the parkinglot when parents take them back to the car for lunch to save some money. I know we do this all the time

yes the 5 dollars part turned pink. I wonder why. I snuck as a soda into the park, and i stupidly took it on 2 coasters. I forgot i took it on, and when i opened it, well you can figure the rest.

I've never tried to sneak anything in, my home park is a picnic park though so you can take in all the food you want(Kennywood).

for me it depends what im bringing with me if its a bottle of water i but it in my pocket. or just hold onto it. but once my sister had a glass bottle and they told her to drink it by the garbage and to trow it out when she finesh and then she said fine waterever she was almost done and she had her labret ring on and this sercirty gaurd comes over and starst screaming at as like where moron underline scum of the earth and im thinking what is this guy doin? so at that point i was holding the glass bottle becuase my sister was taking it out and the sericrty officer was saying you need to trow that out right now and he tryed to snach it from my hand by the way this is at SFGAdv and i just got so upset i said dont toch me or the bottle the other offcier told my sister she could finesh it here so speak with him about it but if you toch me i'll have ur job! i mean come on over a bottle he was trying to rip it out my hand? my mother dont even try to rip things out my hnads i just regret not trowing the bottle in his face and letting him keep it.even if i have to get kicked out the park it would have been so worth it. i would never do that thou. anyways sorry for the long sotrie how you can sneak things into the park (wich i hope is food) is but it inside a T shirt and rap it up. or but in in your cargo pockets if your wearing those type of pants.

At SFMM if you don't go off in the metal detectors with your bag on when you go into the park then they don't check the contents. Also, I think you'll be okay if you put small suff in the side or front pockets.
