What do you do with your bag on RnR?

[wishing4PA]

I've never been on a roller coaster with inversions, so I had no problems avoiding RnR until recently (it's calling to me, lol.)
So, now I'm assuming I'll ride it (knowing of course, that the chicken exit exists). And I'm wondering how I will handle my bag on that ride. I did a little research and I know there is small storage, but it might not hold my triangular over-one-shoulder big Disney bag. It isn't huge, but it's about the size of half DD's school backpack if you cut it diagonally.

On SM, I (quickly as I can!) put it on the floor and wedge one leg into it and hope I can un-wedge quickly enough at the end of the ride. So far, so good.

Is this my best plan for RnR?

There is a chance I might wind up using the fanny pack or a tiny over the head/shoulder purse instead, and none of this will matter. But I like the big bag because it has a "cell phone" pocket which is very convenient for tickets and/or FP, and its main compartments are big enough to hold the video camera and a bottle of water.

ETA: Mods, feel free to move this to attractions board instead -- I meant to put it there.

I always stick my under my feet and usually put a strap around my ankle. It's probably not going to go anywhere anyways, but I like the extra assurance of knowing that it's around my leg if it does decide to fly off.

Yup, I put it on the bag and put my leg through the strap. You'll have plenty of time, no worries.

Last year I had my large DSLR camera backpack with the tripod attached to the side. It was our evening for Fantasmic and I wanted to be able to get some good pics (which I did). Anyway... we decided to ride RnRC while we were there and I took that huge bag on the ride with me. I put my leg through the strap and put it between my legs and hugged the bag with my legs during the ride. It didn't go anywhere and everything was fine. I was actually worried that a CM would tell me I couldn't take it on the ride, but they didn't say anything.

Yeah, what they said.

Thanks, all!
Looks like the leg through the strap method wins!

I stick my leg through the strap, then put the bag behind my legs on the floor of the ride vehicle. I have never felt like it was slipping - the inversions are really quick.

Have to agree with everyone! Easiest way to do it.

Agree!!! Slip your foot through the strap and keep your foot firmly on the floor of the car. I was worried about this the first time but it's such a smooth ride and the bag just stuck to the floor through the inversions.
(i almost chickened out but glad i didn't )
After the first time I haven't worried about it since.

Yes, put your leg through a strap. And don't chicken out! It's a great ride!!
