    I’ve had this happen a few times. It’s such a relief when shit is jammed back to the walls. They did it at O’hare once, shit was crazy in there and they’re all like, “just gtfo, don’t blow anything up” everyone came stomping through the metal detectors. Not sure if it was related, but they had just sent sniffy dogs through the lines so maybe they planned it? I mean, I don’t think the dogs can smell a knife, but I am not a dog, so I don’t know for certain.

      perhaps an explosive knife!

      but I am not a dog

      I mean it’s the internet, you could be deceiving us…

      Happened to me at Ohare in May. They stopped the whole line for 10 minutes when they set it up.

      They brought out portable, battery operated Milwaukee tools fans and a sniffing dog. They made people walk 2 at a time, through a glass walled walkway for about 50 ft and a tsa guy walked a dog behind you. Once you go through the tsa ID check the told us to leave shoes on and electronics in our bags. They still sent the bags through the X-ray though.

      My brother in law flew out of St. Louis and described the exact same thing a week later. Weird.
