They wanded everyone going in. No 30.06 signs that I saw. I guess they were counting on the "professional sporting event" classification. Most of the places selling alcohol inside the gate had 51% signs posted.
One interesting thing happened. I took some cigars for me and my buddies but forgot my cutter. When I got there I took my knife out of my pickup and stuck it in my pocket. It has a folding blade about 2 inches long and has a pocket clip.
When I got wanded I took it out of my pocket and laid it on the table with all my other stuff. The "very attentive" security guy who wanded me didn't say anything about the knife. I rode the shuttle up to the gate.
On my way into the gate, the LEO sitting there tells me the knife can't go in. It was in my pocket with the clip showing. Not sure how he saw it as my cell phone was in the same pocket with it's clip outside my pocket as well. Must have been paying really close attention.
The Marshall who was there was kind enough to take me to will call and ask them to put my name on it and hold it for me. It was there when I finished up for the day.
If I had just dropped it in my pocket no one would have known.
Ended up biting the end off my cigar instead of cutting.

Shell Houston Open
Headed to the SHO on Thursday with some clients...
Just realized today that regardless of what I think about golf, this is a professional sporting event...
Guess my argument that golf is not a sport wouldn't hold up in court, huh...???
