Has Anyone Ever Had Issues Bringing Their Epi Pens Into Sporting Events (pro Hockey, Baseball, And Football Games)
A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I've never had any issues, but a friend of mine went to a game last week and was told that he wasn't allowed to bring them in because they were considered weapons and if need be the on site paramedics had them.

@A MyFoodAllergyTeam Member I myself ended up having issues at the same location. I contacted the head of the managment team. They were extremely apologetic and said that he would discuss this issue with all of his staff.

Never. Is that even legal? It's a life saving medication. I wonder what they do with people who need insulin. Sorry that happened to your friend.
