    Is that Gucci?

    I'm willing to bet a Republican did it.

    Yeah, what gives Dviss? Did this happen during the Schonz meeting when everyone was preoccupied? I heard there was a terror threat because Sly was in the house, so maybe security sliced it open looking for Sly's abomb?

    I highly doubt that. More than likely (if on Max) it was a freeloading asshole trying to redistribute DVISS's wealth!

    First, off . . . . Sorry, but in today's world it is really dumb to leave a backpack or similar bag at any large event or amusement park. Boston? Hello!

    I would expect any bag left unattended at any such event to be confiscated by security.

    It appears this was just vandalism though as security would likely take the bag or just open it normally?

    This wasn't done by fans. It was done by Moda Center Security. They said since it was left unattended they needed to get a dog to sniff it. And they don't use zippers to open it because "that's what sets off the bomb"....

    He basically gave me a card and sent me on my way without giving a fuck...

    I JUST bought him that backpack a little over a week ago...

    Damn. On one hand, because people are so hyper-sensitive to unattended shit in public spaces due to the bombers I understand their need to check it out. On the other hand, I feel for you because I would have been super pissed they did that to my stuff without offering reimbursement....

    Sorry man :-(

    I still think it is unwise to leave any large bag unattended, but I do question this level of diligence when the bag was likely screened upon entrance too, correct? I get bags left in open public spaces, but if you have already gone through screening then maybe they could think about that and lower the alert level. I've seen this general thing happen at Disneyland, where they check all large backpacks before entry. Luckily for the bag owners there they tend to cordon them off and maybe secure them, but I haven't heard of any cut open.

    I'm just curious, where did you leave it? At your seats? How long were you gone?

    That pisses me off! I noticed some two really uptight security guards at the Moda Center..others seemed to actually like their job..they should replace your bag and compensate you..

    They're gonna say that he shouldn't have left it unattended and that it was done for safety.

    I'm sure they will but I still think they should compensate dviss and apologize...maybe even give him comp tickets for the trouble

    Can you please provide more information. Where was it left? How long was it left? When did this happen? Where did you pick up the bag from? Security has trained bombing sniffing dogs?!? I know the police do but Moda security? Was this your bag or your son's bag?

    Let me know as accurately as possible what happened.

    I'm gonna guess it was a police unit because I don't think Moda has dogs. In fact, I'm pretty sure they hire off-duty cops to work as security.

    Maybe they trained Blaze to sniff for bombs.

    They would train you, but they know you would take your sniffing privileges to an inappropriate place.

    It's important to know that the Blazer Dancers are bomb free.
