We have been attending cheer competitions here for a few years now. This is the 1st year we have been searched and they have not allowed outside food and drink. While a appreciate the added security measures, not allowing outside food while not providing adequate and affordable food inside the venue is just disgusting .There are currently 2 places to get food for the competition today . Both have lines with at least and hour wait and not enough healthy food options. Waters are too expensive and the coffee is overpriced and nasty. I'm greatly disappointed in this attempt to monopolize where I spend my money for food during a competition. With call times and performances, leaving the venue isnt practical. And you wouldn't be able to bring in what you bought anyway. I can't even provide my daughter with a nutritious protein packed snack . Severely disappointed in this change. Even LA convention center allows outside food
