Fanny Packs

a portable one way breath valve for CPR -dont laugh...(those have been used before.)

Just carry around a BVM & O2 tank ;)

^That's what my back pack is for! ~JK

btw folded up, the valve is very small...1.5" X 1.5" most emts that i know have one with them at most times, usually on their key chain. (It looks like thick saran wrap with a mesh hole in the center.)

kidding aside, i have one with me at all times, Id feel lost if i needed it and didnt have it with me.

No, I cant fit a cup inside, but, I CAN fit a 10 oz water bottle!

And anything that Homer says/does is cool, we love The Simpsons.

To each his own. I'm sitting at CP right now in my cargos and a CP vintage Rotor shirt, looking quite fashionable. Very comfortable in the shade, but gawd it's hot here already.

But if I'm ever caught wearing a fanny pack it's because I died and somebody pulled a prank on me while I was laying there.

Hot? LOL - I just spent a week much closer to the equator than here (or anywhere in the US) and it showed me a whole new meaning of hot.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! FWIW, I'm a 30 year old lawyer, was a touring musician in several punk/hardcore bands for over 6 years, and could give a damn what anyone thinks about my fashion choices, so I'll be wearing a black sleeveless shirt of an obscure punk band you've never heard of, comfortable shorts and shoes, and the fanny pack I just bought off of amazon for $6, because lockers are for suckers, and I'd rather be a nerd than a sucker.

Well, aren't you just the coolest of the cool?

Just sayin I could care less what anyone thinks about the fashion dos and don't' of a fanny pack. And I think based on your username that you're clearly the coolest kid in school.

Nah. I'm just saying I'm a 30 year old lawyer, was a touring musician in several punk/hardcore bands for over 6 years, and could give a damn what anyone thinks about my username.

Right on, have a nice day!

i've used a small purse with an adjustable strap around my waist for years now, and no problem ever.

I have also used my running belt, which is only large enough to fit my phone, money/credit card, and car key, but can go everywhere, no questions asked.

Cargos are only marginally less of a fashion faux pas than fanny packs.

While that may be true, you won't find fanny packs in all the trendy mall clothing stores. :)

You can have a small pack around your waist or shoulder no problem on all rides including Dragster. Person in my group does it every time.

It sure didn't stay comfortable in the shade. For lunch we hid in the van with the AC on and the display for outdoor temp was 97 and we were parked in the shade.

did you just assume my gender

To answer the original post: In general, fanny packs are permitted on all rides at Cedar Point. If it is excessively large, by which I mean larger than a sheet of letter paper, bulging out, or has occupied cup holder pockets, you may be asked to leave it in a locker. They may not interfere with the proper securing of the restraints in anyway. If they do, they will not be permitted to ride with you. The rides with lap bars (Magnum, Millie, Dragster) usually present little issue but I have noticed that OTSRs sometimes are not able to close properly with a fanny pack. If a ride host feels this may be an issue, they may advise you to leave it in a locker as well.

Was that you in Pink's around 10:50 am this past Thursday morning?

Why, yes it was. We should've said hello, but I'm shy that way. (Not really)

P.S. Did I look fashionable? You guys did.

HA!! Yes that Rotor shirt is the epitome of fashionable.

I figured I just looked like a pig stuffing my face right in front of you.

I'll definitely say "hi" next time I see you.
