Great question, but the answer is predictable. Whatever you normally take to a nights gaming, with some buts.
Take a full set of polyhedra dice plus a handful each of d6 and d10.
Mechanical pencils wont leave you wanting a sharpener.
Paper: I prefer a steno pad. but like to have a pack of 3x3 or 3x5 post-its also.
(optional) Eats: Drinks should be in resealable containers (spill-proofing). No matter how careful you are, there will be a clutz next to you. Chips or candy if thats your thing. There may be food there, but it also may be stadium pricing.
CCG players: 1 or 2 decks. Not 40 lbs of cards. No one cares how many you own. Same for Minis gamers.
GMs: Books that you NEED, not that you might maybe need. pregenerated characters, maps, minis if you use them, the adventure, extra dice.
Other optionals: calculator, tape measure, colored pens, pocket size game.
Load what you need into abackpack/bookbag and off you go. A larger bag is better. If you buy something, in it goes. (except for large board games). If you can, put everything into your pockets and leave the purchases for the end of the day, and leave the bag in the car.
