    Metal Detectors at every MLB game

    Mandatory installed at every gate in every stadium now.

    Going to a game now, have to go through airport security.

    Ridiculous IMO.

    “What’s it actually preventing?” Phillies fan Jeff Young asked. “It’s a solution in search of a problem. If somebody wants to do something, they’ll figure out a way to do it. It just inconveniences roughly 2 million people a year for the sake of what? To me, it seems like a show.”

    Sort of like after the Bruins game 2 weeks ago, or was it the Celtics. Rememeber they had a fight in the stands they get tossed out and somebody gets shot???? Outside of course.

    That's because Doyer Stadium literally sits in the middle of a ghetto.

    Went to Houston rodeo and noticed same thing...funny thing is they make you hold all your items and lift your arms and walk through, of course the alarm goes off bc all your shit in your hand, then you walk on in, no pat down etc...it's just a show, if you're carrying concealed(legally of course) and can raise your arms without printing, you are good to go...detectors are only there to make the sheeple feel at ease..

    ^ I should add that carrying at a pro sporting event is not legal anyway in most/all states...so detectors at those events may be more effective than at rodeo

    I know Citi field uses the wand metal detectors. Not sure about Yankee Stadium, I've been blacked out drunk everytime I'm there.
