Hey so I was at the park recently and saw that the small item hold spots at the rides were primarily closed off. Are they not available for my Buch/SeaWorld mug? I'm too used to using those for when I get on rides and like to get the all day refills.

They should be available open when I went

They have them covered/closed at certain rides for sanitary purposes, but if you ask the attendant then they will let you use it. I haven't been or seen anyone get denied yet.

When I went last week they were open.

They were ok to use a couple weeks ago. I asked the staff and they said to tell the person as you get on the ride.
