Re: MLB Security Measures
9-11 has been used for a lot of things; I think it's kind of sad to see it used to justify reducing the size of bags one can carry into the ballpark. It's an insult most people's intelligence.
I recall standing in line waiting to get into the park sometime in 2002, and I had one of those small vinyl cooler bags, the size of a six-pack; a female Security person told me that I couldn't bring it in because there was a ban on "coolers". I tried to get her to understand that the rule did not apply to what I was carrying, to no avail. So I transferred what had been in the bag to something else, folded up the "cooler" and put it in my pocket. I'm sure everyone was much safer as a result.
