Oh silly husband, no, you CANNOT bring a chair into DL with you!

We are leaving in a tad over a week for our October DL trip! YAY!

Yesterday evening, my DH announced that he was going to bring his small compact camp stool with him to sit on while we wait for parade/fireworks/World of Color. He asked what I thought. Beware asking me a question because you shouldn't ask if you don't want to hear the answer! LOL

I told him that he would likely not be permitted by DL Security to bring such an item into the parks. The rest of our conversation went something like this....

DH: Well, who's going to stop me?
me: Security will stop you.
DH: What? What can they do? I should be able to bring it if I want to.
me: What can they do? They can prevent you from entering the park that day.
DH: That's ridiculous. I want to sit on it so I'm going to bring it.
me: That's not going to happen. You can CHOOSE to do that, but you won't get past the bag check with it.
DH: They can't do that!
me: Yes, honey, they can.
DH: But why? Why can't I bring it?
me: Ask Disneyland staff. I don't make the rules.
DH: I'm going to bring it anyway.
me: Good luck with that. You'll probably have to walk back to the hotel to stash it back in our room and you'll miss rope drop.

I mean...duh...it's RIGHT on the parks' website! Folding chairs not permitted. https://disneyland.disney.go.com/park-rules/

Direct from the Disneyland site about what is and isn't allowed in the parks...."Folding chairs, with the exception of cane-chair and seat-walker mobility aids"

If he still doesn't believe you, you can do a search of the DL site and show him directly on the screen, LOL!

Good luck!

Hahaha, we have had that same conversation! I think maybe they'll tag it and let you pick it up on your way out!

There have been a few posts about difficulty bringing in a cane-chair, even though it is specifically listed as a permitted item.

What was he thinking? They'll let him have it because he SEZ SO? lol!!!!

I have a cane chair and security gave me hell.. 3 days in a row.. they kept telling me to rent a wheelchair.. I said I would when they paid for it... I was telling them, their own website says I can use it.. but they refused to let me in.. after 10 minutes of arguing and getting sick of me holding up the line.. they finally got a supervisor and he said.. oh yeah she can use it ... duh !!

Let him bring it and then let him alone walk it back to the hotel when they tell him no lol. Just tell him to text you when he gets back to the park, you'll be on a ride enjoying yourself after you told him not to bring it

It was a little funny to watch because my DH was having a mini melt down about it.
