"stuck" what do you guys think?
I shoot majority of the FormulaDrift events and have met these guys before. Nothing negative about them but they made this great video and now it seems the media is not taking kindly to these "antics" Staged or not, but I think they're staged. What do you guys think? Is the media taking this completely wrong?

yes, i think it's blown out of proportion. i think it is staged up to a point, where they asked for permission to break into the restaurant, etc. i don't see anything wrong. these two artists along with probably more people were "Stuck" at the airport and decided to have some fun. i do the same when i'm waiting for a flight in the terminal since all i have with me is my photo gear.
What concerns some is that no one seems to do anything to stop them.
For most travelers, airports aren’t really a fun place.

Also everyone I know it's fake but I meant to say what do you think about so many people getting upset over it. Like the people who say that airports are supposed to be serious and all that..

On the topic of airport security....
I went to Vegas earlier this week. When i got to the airport there was an issue getting my boarding pass. Guy at the counter was on hold for over 20mins trying to get it fixed. He eventually printed a boarding pass himself for me.
After going thru security where they check your boarding pass and ID, to make sure everything matches, i looked at my boarding pass and it had the wrong name on it. They replaced two letters with different letters and added an "s" to the end.
i tried to get everything taken care of in Vegas before flying back. Told the person at the counter the situation and she fixed it no problem. While walking up to the security check point, i realized that AGAIN it was the wrong last name. The guy checking passes/IDs seemed to be checking every little thing and i thought i was going to be screwed and have to go back downstairs to fix the problem. After looking at my pass to my ID, back to the pass again and back to the ID, they AGAIN let me thru.
