Curious what the entry was like to that game since POTUS attended.

I assume it took forever due to the extra security. What was it like getting in. Pat downs? Pocket checks?

Will I be able to get my bourbon in?

Wasn't that bad. Only searched my a-hole with 1 finger.

Wear a burka, and they’ll wave you right through security.

Wasn’t bad at all in Tuscaloosa but the CFP National Championship he attended in Atlanta was a huge cluster. Almost half the stadium missed kickoff.

Yes, but you’ll need to put it in a little deeper. Probably sigmoid colon, not just rectum.

It was a hell of a lot quicker than the SEC championship game. TSA is quick

Might have just been my section but we waited about 45 minutes to an hour. Got in just in time for the national anthem.

If Daddy wants extra security I have no problem with random cavity searches

I was patted down, but my pal had to empty everything out of his wallet piece by piece. I watched and the SS treated people differently for whatever reason. We arrived 2 hours, 45 min early and it only took 20 minutes to get in. We were on the side the POTUS sat on which made it harder to approach the gates. The couple sitting next to us said it took them 1 hour to get in and they almost missed the kickoff. People were still coming in late in the 1stQ.

We were as well probably why it took longer. Pretty sure. Women had to empty their purses.

I went about 45 minutes before kickoff and it took me. 5 minutes to get in. My son was in line about 20 minutes before and just made kickoff

Walked right in, close to kickoff, with a water bottle full of bourbon and wasn’t searched, other than the medal detector.

Superdome will be about the same. Medal detector, bags searched, possible container for pocket objects. Plastic bottles stuffed in waist will make it in.

It’s just so selfish... he’s not an LSU or Clemson fan; why make things harder on the people who actually care about this game?

Walked through a metal detector and everyone is scanned by the handheld one as well.

Super quick but you get scanned twice

Agreed. Just get in line 20 mins before you usually would to be safe. Saw tons of empty crown, bourbon and vodka bottles in stands at Bama after. No metal, no problem.
