Sgt. Tim Schmidt of the Anaheim police said “the circumstances were suspicious enough” to merit calling in the Orange County Sheriff's bomb squad.Well, the likelihood of someone wanting to put Captain EO out of its misery is very high...

But everyone went through bag check. Obviously there could't be anything dangerous in the park right?

Ah I miss those post 9/11 days when fear kept both park attendance and AP costs down...

Burritos have been called many things, including bombs. But this is taking it a bit far, don't you think?

There will be a lot of finger pointing over this, and the front gate will likely have a few meetings about it. Bag check can let a cooler full of burritos through to be put in the lockers, but they shouldn't get through the turnstiles.

Oh? THe geriatrics at that search area let a bunch of burritos thru? Is that Beef & Cheese or a WMD, I can't tell.

Nothing against those old folks on the front line, because I'm getting there myself, but if you're going to secure and search, why use those with failing vision?

Yeah, folks, put Abe Vigoda in the watch tower...so much safer feels I...

The first thing I thought was, "Oh no! Not a bomb scare at Innoventions!" ;)

That's why the picnic area entrance is outside of bag check. The bag check folks used to never let food through and would direct people to the lockers at the picnic area.

Looks like they should be more diligent about doing that again.

The first thing I thought was, "Oh no, was there a rumor that Rocket Rods was coming back?!"

Absolutely. There is a plethora of food options in the park and I'll bet Disney they could double their profit margin on all of it just by being "more diligent".
