So far OK, but here's the kicker. He had been GIVEN the bag to use by the TSA in Columbus, and it even said "TSA" on it. The guys at ORD said "wrong size, no zip top" and took it away from him. When he began to tell his story, they said "TSA at Columbus isn't TSA in Chicago". Honestly.
Nice to see the TSA offering employment to some mentally retarded/challenged/differently-abled and otherwise unemployable winners in Chicago.
Complete lunacy. Confiscate the guy's stuff because they don't like the bag. A bag the TSA gave the guy. Unbelievable.
