I am thrilled someone started this thread. I was hoping I was not the only one who felt that being treated like an inmate was offensive. Wrestling is a great sport for our kids, but it is expensive -entry fees, gas, and feeding the family each weekend. I understand the host club of a tournment normally only make money off the concessions. As such, we take a cooler, but we try to spend some money at their concession stand. We want to support the club that sponsers the tournment. But, this weekend was wrong. Our state people did a GREAT job running a class tournment. But, the facilite's security staff were intoxicated with their power. Even at Liberty you were allowed to take in food, and the lines at the concession stands were always long. Also, there was nothing healthy for the kids to buy. Wasn't there advise posted before the State High School tournments that kids should take lots of healthly snacks. Shouldn't our tournment allow this. I bet if they didn't pay the salaries of all those staff to search our stuff, and allow a reasonable amount of food in, they would make the same money.
