So the funniest thing happened while Dave and Sandy were going through security at the airport. Dave runs his carry on through the scanner and the TSA asks to search his bag. Maybe asking is not the right word, they demanded. So the take all the contents out and search the bag, but find nothing. They run the bag back through the scanner empty but are apparently a little suspicious. After dumping out his bag 4 times and running his bag back through a couple dozen times the head of the security comes over and pulls something out of his bag. They show the suspicious item to Dave Sr. and to his surprise (allegedly) it is a magazine full of hollow point bullets!!! LOL.. Can you believe it??
The story goes that Dave's brother in law, Brandon, is a police officer. Well Brandon and Sr. switched luggage bags a couple of years ago and I guess Brandon left it in the bag. Funny thing is that Sr. has flown with this bag (checked of course) for at least three years now, and he just now finally found it. Surprisingly enough it does not matter to the TSA if the bullets or your or not, it is your bag.. LOL So Dave had to fill out an incident report and they are reporting it to the TSA. They asked him if he had a concealed handgun license, he said no and the guard told him good because it would be revolked if he did. They also mentioned that if he would have had the gun that he would have not been flying today. Apparently TSA will be sending him some sort of paper work, or something in regards to the matter. I guess they take this stuff pretty seriously, so fo future reference NO BULLETS ON A PLANE.
I think now Dave and I will have to start arriving at the airport 30-45 minutes earlier than normal, seeing as how he will now require a cavaity serarch before flying (being that his name sake has been blacklilsted with the TSA). Dave Jr. and I are now trying to figure out what we can sneak in his bag for the flight back, that is if they let him fly back =)
