Less than 10 bucks gets you a bat bag made to hold up to two baseball bats. Less than 34 inches long, one of these bags can also be used to carry a tripod or lightstand. Available in many sporting goods stores, they have carrying straps with clips that let you hook them onto a fence or peg board. There’s also room for a small camera bag and an extra pocket for loose photo gear.

What a great idea for a lighting gear bag! I love the idea of repurposing non-photo gear for this kind of stuff.
If this were in a camera store, you'd pay 3x as much for it. At least.

Hey thanks for this tip!
I just bought a sweet looking all black addidas bat bag for $20. It's actually 38" long. It easily holds two light stands,, 40" umbrellas and a fairly beefy tripod.
I also borrowed a brand new Bogen, Manfrotto Probag 2 which would have cost $90. It was an easy choice for me.
