    Default Dome metal detector thread

    This is a thread to communicate the process so we dont have 6k people all trying to get in and holding up the line

    This isn't like airport where you have to remove belts, shoes, and stuff but plan on giving yourself a little more time

    Dont remove jacket, wallet, coins, shoes

    You just need to put your cell phone, sun glasses, metal flask (sarcasm) and car keys in a bin

    No bags larger than 13 inches. No selfie sticks, cameras with detachable lenses, or computers

    They need more than 30 metal detectors if they want this to be anything other than a complete shit show. In reading the Forum article about it I got the impression that Sobolik was making it sound like them getting 3,000 people through the metal detectors every 15 was fast. They only open the doors 90 minutes before kickoff. That's six 15 minute windows. If they get 3k people through every 15 minutes during that time that's 18k. The dome holds 19k when sold out with standing room...

    Not to mention, everyone will head in at 2; good luck with that.

    I completely agree with the security measures but I would think opening the doors 2 hours early because of this would make much more sense. " We Cant get around that old minimum wage Mortimer!!".

    Would that also hold true for anacondas? Asking for a friend.

    Still does not solve the problem as earlier stated about everyone trying to get in at 2:00.
    Will they delay the start of the game if majority of fans are still outside? lol

    In my view, if people wait until 2 that becomes a personal problerm.
    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.
