Favorite items to bring to horse shows (as a viewer)

What are the items you bring to horse shows that make your life/riders life easier and more comfortable. I’m mostly interested in the non-horse stuff. Like favorite cooler that’s easy to move and keeps ice or favorite folding chair, table, food totes, car storage for horse and non-horse items, etc.

One thing that worked really well for our girls, on a super hot show day, was Frogg Toggs Chilly pad/towel. They put them on the back of their neck and it kept them cooler.

Not so much as a spectator - for that I just take a folding chair.
But for The Ntl Drive, a weeklong GTG for Drivers, I take a couple chairs & a small soft-sided cooler for water & healthier snacks than show vendors generally have.
Also rainboots. Nothing ickier than having to wear wet shoes all day :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Binoculars for the jumpers. Makes it quite a learning experience as you observe the riders’ cues.
