So I’m at this airport and I go through one of those new full body scanners. I was fine but my carry-on flagged some alarms, so they emptied all my stuff out. They preceeded to take a few items; a book, bottle of vitamins and my recently acquired Sock Monkey named CJ. They let me through, get my info however have now taken my newfound friend in for chemical testing. Apparently it has contraband on it??? Umm, Really? No word on when I get it back, just like call in 12 hours or something.
C’mon its just a harmless Sock Monkey, give it back. They’ve DETAINED my Sock Monkey pffft. Well, I took some videos of the whole thing, I’ll post it when I get a chance.
I’m posting more details, including videos as I get them, on the facebook group. Please Free CJ!
