So you show up with a banned bag? Don’t cry. You have options. First, most tailgate lots have bag check services for a fee—usually $10 to $20. It’s like a valet for your backpack.
Second, you can just walk back to your car and swap bags. Yes, it’s annoying. But think of it as a free cardio warm-up before sitting for three hours.

Third, you could try to charm the security guard with your smile. “Please? It’s my emotional support fanny pack.” I’ll save you time: it won’t work. But hey, you might make a friend.
The Ultimate Checklist (So You Don’t Look Like a Rookie)
Before you leave home, run this mental checklist: clear bag, small, under 4.5” x 6.5”. No backpacks. No fanny packs. No totes. No daggers (okay, I made that last one up, but still).
Also, know that SoFi is a cashless venue. No paper money allowed. So if you’re planning to pay for a hot dog with a crumpled $20, prepare to be handed a tablet and a sigh.
And don’t forget: you can bring a sealed bottle of water. But that’s a whole other article, my friend.
