Denied Fast Track as *G in TLV

I just cleared security in TLV. There was a guy checking people's boarding passes at the entrance to the fast track lane. Even though my BP clearly said Fast Track, this guy denied me entry saying that the fast track lane is ONLY for people with business class tickets. When I tried pointing out that my BP states Fast Track he got angry and started raising his voice. It's TLV and I didn't want to make a scene, so I shrugged my shoulders and went to the normal lane. Fortunately there were no queues anyway and I got through almost as quickly as I would have done in fast track.

It still cheeses me off though. I had this kind of behaviour once in MAD and I knew I was in the right so I got someone from LH to tell the fast track dragon that I had a right to enter. In TLV I preferred to keep my head down and not kick up a fuss.

Has anyone else had this problem in TLV or did I just get unlucky with a security goon in a bad mood?
