Security have a long day ahead, can't expect them not to need snacks to keep them going. Other than them being peckish though that sounds very odd.

It's kind of hard to tell right? Regardless, all queues lead inside. No movement at Gate B yet as far as we can see. Hmmm. Hence the if.

Janaka Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 Is this a sustainability thing because of the packaging? Would Pringles pass with their recyclable containers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s it yeah. The security seemed pretty baffled by it too, as it’s just crisps, not any other packaging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobWillis2 Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 Smells more like security are looking for an easy way to take peoples stuff so they can sell it on inside the festival rather than an actual policy to confiscate crisps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leyrulion Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 In gate d queues snakes round to orange west 38 and beyond. But is moving. Probably 300 metres in last 10 mins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooter Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 either way, its very strange and not really on imo. Maybe a good few people not agreeing with this at the gates and the idiot who thought this policy up will have a rethink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
