There we were, going thru security at LAX when we hear "bag check." OH NO!!! IT'S THE BAG WITH THE JUMBO REPO PINS!!! I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT TO GET THOSE STUPID PINS!! THEY CAN'T TAKE THEM AWAY FROM ME I TELL YA, ARGH... (Sorry, still channeling pirates )
Luckily, we had a very nice agent. As it turns out, she has family in Panama and we started chatting about the canal passage. Process of elimination brought her to the mutant pins. After attempting to figure out how they were packed, she let my DH help her to open the case that they're in. She loved the pin, and gave us the go ahead. We warned her that there were 997 more pins that will be setting off alarms. She laughed and said that at least she knows what to look for.
*Sigh* am I back in the real world? I wanna be cruizin again!!
