Some of us have been known to try and hide a few brews; when this is the case, I can understand why tracks have such strict cooler laws. I think that any track has a right to enforce any cooler rule; but they should post a BIG sign stating what those rules are, and then enforce the rule consistently. And if you don't like or agree with the rules, then go somewhere else...
It's not even a matter of bringing in beer. We like to bring along bottles of water in a cooler. We usually end up going to the concessions as well. If it's a particularly hot or humid day, an extra bottle or two of water is nice to have in reserve. Plus I'm lazy, and once I plant my butt in the seat, I like to stay there!:2:
