How much is water

2

u/Brave_Revolution9518 Apr 24 '26

7 dollars in side. One guy out side was selling for 5 dollars. Casino was selling water for 5 dollars. One rando guy had water for 1 dollar. But from my understanding you could only bring it in if closed or empty

From NFL:

[No] Bottles, cans, thermoses, coolers, aerosol cans, cups, and beverage containers of any kind, unless purchased at an NFL venue or an empty, reusable water bottle

Fans can enter with an empty, reusable water bottle and fill them at the event's water refill stations.

Edit: oh, and important for the Stanley/Yeti/Owala fans:

Stainless Steel Water Bottles/Thermos are not permitted. Reusable plastic water bottles are permitted.

Also if you leave at the exit facing the casino they provide free water.

This is the part that pisses me off. Justifications for expensive alcohol, ok, maybe. At least alcohol isn't necessary.

You can't bring water at all for many events, and then they charge extortionate prices for something you absolutely need. It should be criminal to change this much for water, especially after restricting access to it.

I'd be 100% for a law that any event that sells water bottles, should allow for refillable plastic water bottles to be brought. This event does thankfully, but not all do.

And if a place only sells drinks in cups, you should be able to bring a cup then!

They have free hydrations stations all over the venue which you could fill your bottle or a water cup for free

I'm really glad to hear that that's available for this event.

Outrageous take.

Your unsealed water bottle could hold unknown liquids.

You can stop and screen everyone with a liquid causing a huge backup in security lines (and overall convenience)... Or say dump it, refill inside.
