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

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...

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.

It's my son's bag. It was left on the window sill right where we did the raffle and spoke to Mike & Bill Schonely. We discovered it was gone at the end of the 4th quarter. We came up there and asked for it. A rather rude lady told me it was in guest services. I went down to get it and described it to the lady there. She said somebody was "coming to talk to me about it". That's when I noticed the 2 box cutter shaped slices. I tried futilly to explain the amount of vetting done to bring the bag in in the first place and inquired as to why none the many zippers were used to open the bag. The cuts weren't even big enough to see the entire contents... That's when he basically said tough titty and gave me his bomb line...

Oh, so was it sitting there for most of the game? I guess on the one hand it's good that nobody stole it.

one thing that doesn't make sense....
So they don't use the zippers because it could set the "Bomb" off, but box cutter can cut right through the interior contents potentially setting the "bomb" off.
Doesn't add up to me...
Dviss, I didn't know you moonlighted...
 
IDK what the bomb protocol is, but don't they have metal detectors at the RG? Also, I quick check to see how much it weighs would have been super easy. I dont know, seems a bit much to freaking slice open someones bag after it got 'screened' in. I suppose you can never be to careful, but compensation given to DVISS would be my expectation, at least in like a ticket to a game or some food voucher....a simple mistake like that shouldn't be punished so severely...

I think Dviss should have a pair of season club tickets, and since it is my thought, he will take me to the games. ;)
 
NEXT TIME JUST BRING AN ALUMINUM SUITCASE. THEY CAN'T KNIFE THROUGH DAT.

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.

Yea it was unfortunate, I feel bad for not making sure he grabbed it because I remember seeing it sitting there along the Pines windows. Eastoff, Dviss, his son, my friend and I were busy chatting it up NBA officiating. We were really getting into it. Then the players came out for warm-ups and we rushed outta there to go find our seats.
 
Nothing was stolen?

I'd chalk it up as a loss and buy a new bag. Next time don't leave it unattended. Good learning lesson for your son. This day in age with all the crazy ass bombers out there, security at places with major crowds are going to suspicious of unattended bags. I'm not trying to be a dick, but times have changed. Even in the last 5 years. Command Center at the Moda have cameras everywhere. People watching those cameras at all times. I'm willing to bet someone caught it on there. Got the PD involved. The command center doesn't have bomb sniffing dogs.

You can use those cameras to see it was a kids pack too. Im sure terrorists use kids too but if we've become this paranoid the terrorists have already won.
