Default Attention Ice Hockey Players, where do you fit your hockey bag?

I have a 996 C4S. I have two other cars that fit my hockey bag just fine, but I would like to take the porsche to hockey once in a while.

I bought a smaller upright bag with wheels. Once I put my skates and helmet in the bag (i have size 12 skates) and place the bag on the passeger seat, it interferes with the shifter and I can't change gears.

Does your Ice hockey bag fit? If so, what bag do you have and do you put it in the passenger seat or the back seat?

LOL, now that it's warm out here and there are a few weeks of hockey left, I've been thinking the same thing.
I'm in a little better position than you are as I have a cab, and only need a good weather forcast to get myself the bag and 2 sticks to the rink. What I have thought of if needed becouse of rain would be to unpack a few things that can be put into the footwell or back seat which will make the bag smaller to fit into the passenger seat

You need a cab not a coupe.

i am thinking the same thing - except for skiing. i have a coupe too. thinking the boots/helmet/gear bag will fit in the frunk, and the clothes/jacket/ski pants to in the back seat(s). skis fit in passenger seat? need to try it and see how it works.

Buy two smaller bags; one for the back seat, one for the frunk.

It may be 10% less convenient but it will be 100% more awesome to drive your Porsche.

It's the wheelie bag that's killing you. You need to get a regular canvas bag, put the passenger seat flat and then it will fit with no problem. I know from experience. I have a cab so usually i just put the top down but when its raining the top is up and it fits fine.

My hockey bag doesn't have wheels and I put it in the front seat without an issue.
