PrintSo I left a backpack at last night's game. Does anyone know a phone number I could call security at, all of the numbers on the website lead to dead ends? I need to talk to an actual human being. Has anyone had success with a similar experience, leaving something at the park? It would be nice to get my backpack and mittens back.

You should call guest relations would probably be the best start
773-404-2827 and ask for customer relations

But seriously I hope you get your gear back.

Left a voicemail
with some lady in park customer relations. I hope she calls me back. Is there like a lost and found bin or did my stuff become a souvenir of the cleaning crew?
There is a lost & found.
If someone working at the park found your stuff, they’ll hold it for you. If not… you might be out of luck. Hope you get it back.

Out-of-towner question.....
They let you bring backpacks into the ballpark? I’ve been to a number of events in recent years in other cities where they turn you away if you have a bag of any sort.
In any case, good luck, Holy Cow – sometimes these things do work out, amazingly enough.

Yes, you can bring a backpack in.
They’ll ask to look inside. As long as you don’t bring in any cans or bottles they won’t have a problem with it.

You can do that...
... IF it’s in a SEALED plastic bottle (as it says below).

This is accurate.
They don’t, to my knowledge, strictly measure the backpacks, but most standard backpacks come in well under the 16×16x8 limit.

Coffee
Wonder if I could get in with hot coffee in a soda bottle? Maybe not because it wouldn’t really be sealed.
