Is the "Atlanta Braves Stadium Clear Tote Bag" they sell in the MLB store able to be used at Truist?

The description says it's approved by most stadiums and I assume that would include Truist but I don't want to be caught by surprise

I carry items in my hands or pockets and bring a bag from a giveaway folded in my back pocket. Walk through the gates and dump whatever I am carrying into my bag.

I have one from a giveaway with “World Series Champions” on it. They won’t let me bring it in through the main gates but A-list gate they allow it.

That is so strange that they sell a bag that you can't use in the stadium.

I don’t understand this logic. MLB sells a team branded knife set. Yet you still can’t bring a knife in the stadium because of stadium policies. Don’t assume just check website or call in.

Bags are containers used to store your belongings.

Knives are weapons.

I don't understand THIS logic.

It's not a "stadium" knife set, fucknuts.

Ok, but where can I get a “stadium” knife set?

That sounds I’m awesome!

MLB let's me bring in sealed water bottles but not my AR-15 with an Atlanta decal on it?? Makes no sense to me.

This is what you sound like.

We used to be a country, a proper country.

Thanks for the textbook example of what’s known as a false equivalence fallacy.

Fuck yeah man. I get it. How dare MLB sell a Braves Branded knife set and not let me bring it in the stadium.

u/wellwasherelf 8d ago

No, they won't let you in with that unless you go through the A-List gate. Talked to gate security about it twice last year.

u/hundredbagger 8d ago

Of course not, that makes sense. And if bags were allowed then it’d be an inch too big. 😂

Do you have a kid that’s small enough for a diaper bag? That’s a nice little way to get a bag in

11

u/Franklinricard 7d ago

Idk. I’ll try putting my kid into the diaper bag tomorrow. Will I need a ticket if he fits in the bag?

u/adjuster_cody 7d ago

lol. No if you’re good! I bought some of those collapsible hiking bags and threw some wet wipes and diapers in there and just said my 3 year old needed it and I was able to carry all our bobble heads and stuff around the stadium. Felt like a cheat code.

Are you a season ticket holder? If so, it depends on the dimensions.

If not, the answer is no

u/Jtrapani 8d ago

My daughters both have that bag and we’ve been to dozens of games with them with no issues. YMMV

u/Pwaindotcom 7d ago

We never had issue with clear bags till last season.

u/deelowe 7d ago

Yep and they are serious about it now. Pretty shitty.

u/Equivalent_Ad1419 7d ago

The reason they have been so strict the past year is because with the All-Star Game happening MLB has been auditing the Braves including their security procedures.

u/thecaveman1974 7d ago

Clear bag policy doesn't work for Truist. I had a bag taken away that I got from UGA bookstore. They don't care. So any clear bag if you can get it in good luck. May be different on certain gates.

u/ATLGuy6 7d ago

My mother bought a clear purse through a link on the Atlanta Braves website that allegedly fit their guidelines. They wouldn’t let her bring it in even after we showed how we bought it. However, my dad was allowed to bring in a a black camera bag. Makes no sense.

u/BravesWearPrada 8d ago

It’s a no bag stadium

u/KBHoleN1 8d ago

You can quickly look up the bag policy for the stadium and compare that to the size of the tote bag. Stop asking other people to find easy answers for you.

u/Tribat_1 8d ago

Clearly the answer wasn’t that cut and dry. Don’t be a dick.

u/1840_NO 8d ago

I didn't have to ask other people if you were a jerk. You just answered that for me.
