Are Laptops allowed in Baseball Stadiums?

I did a google search and one report said Yankee stadium doesn't allow them, another said Troppicana field does indeed allow them.

 

MY question is - I'd like to go to Tomorrow's Rays vs. Yankees game @ Troppicana field. But i'd also like to follow other games/news/reports etc. on my Laptop.

 

1. Are laptops allowed?

2. Is there internet?

 

Thanks for any help.

The following items are PROHIBITED in Tropicana Field:

 

* Bags, purses, backpacks, coolers, containers of any kind in excess of 16" x 16" x 8"

* Wrapped presents* or presents of any kind in excess of 16" x 16" x 8"

* Hard containers or coolers of any kind, type or size

* Helium balloons and beach balls

* Bullhorns, airhorns, lasers

* Weapons, fireworks

* Cameras with lenses more than 12" in length

* Electronic equipment that interferes with other fans' enjoyment of the game

* Banners and flags with sticks, poles or items that can obstruct another fan's view

* Clothing with obscene or offensive messages

 

Doesn't mention laptops, but I'd at least be prepared to have to walk back to my car.

Hm. appreciate the info Crimson!

 

The answer to this question is getting a BlackBerry. Or any type of smart phone. Laptops are bulky and unnecessary at a ballpark.

 

Love the bulkyness while sitting down :). Cant stand small screens.

 

Maybe the Ipad, my bro has that... :o hm.

A couple years ago I was at Wrigley, and the lady a couple seats down the row was on her laptop doing work. It was a week day, and apparently she was allowed to leave work and go to the game, as long as she still did work during the game, so she sat there on her laptop and watched the game and did work in between innings. Seemed like a sweet life to me.

Laptops could fall under this category

but personally, I would allow laptops into the game

Last year I had a G1 (which is now a Motorola Cliq) and I would post to this site from Camden Yards - a couple of posters asked me in the game thread how I was commenting on something in the first person but also posting it. It was pretty cool, although I was limited to what my battery could do.
