I suspect your wanding at the Spectrum has more to do with the actions of 'bangers in Phila than it does terrorists in the Middle East or elsewhere. They always used to do physical searches at the stadiums, didn't they? Wanding is more effective, less invasive, and also less likely to result in sexual harassment charges (I operate a walkthrough metal detector and hand-wand as part of my job).
