Stupid Question, but do the powers that be allow you to bring umbrellas into MMPUS?

Yeah, along with about 20,000 other fans.  It shouldn't be a problem.
Lighten up, Francis.

I have taken them over the years. Nobody has ever hassled me about it. I guess if you started beating Cardinals with them or Cardinal fans they may say something....
It's all part of the game.....

Officially, Under "Bag Check" The Link  "Large bags and luggage, inflatables, nets, noise makers, brooms, weapons, laser pointers, coolers, cans, bottles, food and beverages are not permitted at any time. To ensure fan safety, the Houston Astros reserve the right to refuse admittance of any item deemed hazardous or suspicious."

"Noise makers"?  Are thunder sticks noise makers?  You'll be relying on the good judgement of the Houston Astros (who once let Hipolito Pichardo on the mound) to decide whether the umbrella is hazardous, don't bring the one shaped like a flechette or suspicious, nix on the one with the large mustache.  There could be trouble.

No roof between the ballpark and the car.

I haven't, but have it at if you just want a bit of fun.  I'm not offering any prizes.

Edit:  How about "Welcome to foot...ball!"

There's way to many options on this one...how about "wait a minute...wait a minute, I think there's another one in there".
