I found it weird that the Atlanta pd were jacking with the pro riders at a supercross event, but don’t give a damn about the numerous groups of guys that illegally ride the streets every day. Seems back asswards that they would harass athletes bringing money into their community while turning a blind eye to the guys wrecking it. Apparently Brayton and 722 both had issues as well as Weston getting into some hot water for riding all the way to the pits after his practice get off. I have no dog in the fight being from TX, but honestly with all the crap the Atlanta sx round brings I’d like to see it shit canned in favor of another Midwest round.

I remember at NJ SX it was a pain for the mechanics to get through the metal detector. Its crazy how different SX’s security is. Some are strict and some have none.
The Shop
There was a certain section you had to have the bike off and push it.
Was it stupid... IMO Yes, but that was the rule of the day.
The nerve of some people.
I have worked Colts games before and it's similar. They tell me where and how they want it done. I provide security and am compensated by the organizer. Inside or outside the stadium. Local PD does not pay to provide private event security.
Pit Row
As stadiums get modernized, security goes up. You're in a city where there was a (homegrown) terrorist bombing during the Olympics there. You're also right on the heels of a school shooting.
Compared to Paris last fall, this was mild. I think I went through three layers of security getting into the stadium there.
While inconvenient, I'm not sure why there's the outrage here.
