So, to wrap up your bag strategy: walk up with nothing in your hands—just your phone, wallet, and keys. That’s peak efficiency. If you must bring something, go for a clear fanny pack worn across your chest. It screams “I’m a prepared tourist,” but it also screams “I read the policy.” Bonus: you can store it in a locker later if you buy a locker key for the day (which, oddly, some rides allow you to leave on a wristband).
And if you forget all this? No worries. You’ll just join the legions of people at the bag return kiosk, paying $12 to stash your lunch. Might as well buy that $12 pretzel at that point. The real trick? Embrace the minimalist day—your back will thank you after walking 10 miles in the sun. Now, go ride Twisted Colossus without the luggage.
