I just saw a FOX guy interview a woman who was waiting in line for 3 hours to get into the Superdome.
Are they taking fingerprints or what down there? Why is it taking so long for people to get in? Surely they don't have this kind of wait when people come for a game.
That poor lady said she wanted to be inside the Dome, not outside and that she'd be ok when she gets in. I could only think -- I sure hope that's so.
Those folks could be cooped up together in possibly awful conditions for a long time. The last thing you need is a bunch of jerks getting in there with weapons. I imagine that concern is a big part of why it's taking so long.
Seem to imply that belongings are being checked and people wanded. I'm sure frustrating for the people in line, but probably a good idea since NO has one of the highest gun-related crime rates in the country.
