Kc Royals Bag Policy 2023

Alright, folks, gather 'round. I've got some juicy news about the Kansas City Royals' bag policy for the 2023 season. Now, I know what you're thinking, "Bag policy? That's as exciting as watching paint dry!" But hold onto your hats, because this ain't your grandma's bag policy. We're talking Royals here, and they do things a little differently.

First things first: The Big Ban

Let's start with the big guns, or rather, the big bags. The Royals have taken a leaf out of the NFL's book and said a big, fat "No" to bags larger than 16" x 16" x 8". That's right, folks. If your bag is bigger than a toddler, it's not getting in. Now, I know some of you are thinking, "But what about my giant purse? My oversized diaper bag? My bag of holding (yes, I'm talking to you, Lord of the Rings fans)?

Well, my friends, you're going to have to downsize. Or, as the Royals so elegantly put it, "All bags, including but not limited to purses, bags with wheels, and diaper bags, must be 16" x 16" x 8" or smaller." And yes, they really did include 'bags with wheels'. Because, you know, who doesn't love a good rolling bag at a baseball game?

But wait, there's more!

Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, I can handle that. I'll just squeeze my stuff into a smaller bag." But hold your horses, because the Royals have more surprises up their sleeves. They've got a list of banned bags that's longer than the lineup on game day. We're talking no backpacks, no coolers, no large purses, no diaper bags, no fanny packs (yes, really), and no bags with wheels (I told you they were serious about those).

But here's where it gets interesting. The Royals have a heart, folks. They understand that sometimes, you've just got to bring your stuff. So, they've introduced a 'Clear Bag' policy. Yep, you heard it right. If your bag is clear, it's fair game. The Royals will let you in with a bag that's 16" x 16" x 8" or smaller, as long as it's clear. It's like they're saying, "We trust you, but we want to see what you're bringing in." It's like a real-life game of 'Show and Tell', folks. And who doesn't love that?

But what about the essentials?

Now, I know you're all worried about your essentials. You're thinking, "What about my snacks? My water? My sunscreen?" Well, fear not, my friends. The Royals have thought of everything. They've got a list of approved items that's longer than the 7th inning stretch. We're talking water bottles (sealed, of course), snacks, sunscreen, blankets, and even seat cushions. Yes, you heard it right. You can bring your own seat cushion. Because, let's face it, those stadium seats aren't getting any softer.

But here's where it gets a little weird. The Royals have banned... wait for it... selfie sticks. Yes, folks. You can bring in your own seat, but you can't bring in a selfie stick. I mean, who even uses those things anymore? But hey, I'm not here to judge. I'm just here to tell you the rules.

And now, for something completely different

Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, I get it. No big bags, no banned bags, clear bags are okay. But what about my trusty old fanny pack? Can I wear that around my waist like a boss?" Well, folks, the Royals have an answer for that too. And it's a surprising one. They've said, "Yes, you can wear your fanny pack. But only if it's clear." Yes, you heard it right. The Royals have made fanny packs cool again. Well, sort of.

But here's where it gets even weirder. The Royals have banned... wait for it... laser pointers. Yes, folks. You can bring in your own seat, you can wear a clear fanny pack, but you can't bring in a laser pointer. I mean, who even uses those things at a baseball game? But hey, I'm not here to judge. I'm just here to tell you the rules.

And finally, the million-dollar question

Now, you might be thinking, "Okay, I've got my clear bag, I've got my snacks, I've got my sunscreen, I've even got a clear fanny pack. But what about my trusty old umbrella? You know, for those rainy days." Well, folks, the Royals have an answer for that too. And it's a surprising one. They've said, "Yes, you can bring in your umbrella. But only if it's smaller than 12 inches when closed." Yes, folks. The Royals have made umbrellas cool again. Well, sort of. But only if they're small enough to fit in your clear bag.

So there you have it, folks. The Kansas City Royals' bag policy for the 2023 season. It's a wild ride, isn't it? But don't worry, I've got a cheat sheet for you. If you're ever in doubt, just remember: No big bags, no banned bags, clear bags are okay, fanny packs are cool (sort of), and leave your laser pointers and oversized umbrellas at home. And if all else fails, just ask a Royals fan. They'll set you straight. After all, they're the ones who've been through it all. From the World Series wins to the bag policy changes, they've seen it all. And they're still cheering. So, grab your clear bag, fill it with your essentials, and let's get ready to have a royally good time at the ballpark.
