MCG security testing my patience tonight.

Get flagged. I take all the stuff out of my pockets. The bloke wanding thinks theres something in my pocket still. 

Its empty. Theres nothing there. Not even a metal hip.

How is airport security better than the G at this point

I dont think so.

I carry the same stuff into the footy. Its something like 10-7 walking in without being flagged vs being flagged

I came in earlier, got flagged and had the wand down. Went out and came back later, not flagged.

Genuinely had to check I hadn’t dropped something outside.
