      It's obvious there isn't really any security concern at this thing and they only have a minimum veneer of it to prevent the public from just strolling in. If they were really guarding any secrets it would have been very difficult to get through security. Mostly it's just crowd control in this case.

    Once upon a time, when I was a soldier, I got to the base in the morning and there was a huge line at the entrance and security checks seemed to be going very slowly. When I finally got to the front I asked about it, and a very annoyed soldier told me that the day before someone got in with fake credentials containing a picture of Bin Laden. If that's what it takes to get into a military base, I'm not surprised it's this easy to get into a convention, even if it is a security convention.

A group dressed like Bin Laden and got through multiple security clearances. After the 3rd one they were like SH.T we better turn around (there were apparently snipers). It obviously made national news (probably international but I don't know). The group did it for a segment run by the ABC.

    I once accidentally broke into an airport, (LA/ San Francisco, I forget). I decided to walk between terminals as I'd arrived at the wrong one. I guess most people used the transport they had available for that. On the walk there, which was extremely far (maybe a kilometer), I found an elevator that was marked for my terminal, and as I was trying to press the button, some airport person quickly scanned a lanyard and opened the elevator, which I proceeded to ride up with them. I then walked around confused through some pretty empty parts of the airport, where I could see people waiting in airport security below me (I didn't go through). Eventually I just kind of popped out in the part of the airport I wanted to be in in the first place, and as I already had a ticket nothing really went wrong after that. It was kind of surreal though. I think I accidentally just went in a staff only elevator and essentially broke into the airport.

    I have a similar personal experience, but a bit more terrifying. So a few years ago I joined the Army Reserves. I was in training one day at my local army base which is the 4th Battalion, the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment, and a fellow soldier told me the passcode for the gate which allows you access into the premises. Little did I know, I wasn't actually allowed to know this at the time as all soldiers in training had to buzz the gate upon arrival and the office would speak to you through a speaker to verify who you are and then they buzz the gate and allow you inside the base. Now because I got told the passcode by a fellow soldier, I assumed I could use it. I thought "great, that will be quicker and easier!" I didn't know that I couldn't use the code yet until I completed my training and got officially promoted! The codes are changed every fortnight, or whenever a reservist quits.
    But yeah so one day shortly after, I turned up at the base a few hours earlier than I was scheduled to be there for, because I wanted to get a head start on my exercise. So I popped the code in for the gate, and I simply walked in. I then buzzed the door to the main building, as it was closed, and the office staff recognised me on the camera obviously so they let me in. The office staff didn't know that I wasn't supposed to be there yet, they just knew my face.
    Anyway I couldn't find my Corporal who usually instructs us on what to do and where to go etc so I just went to the locker room and used the toilet and sorted my gear out, and about 20 minutes later as I started to get changed into my uniform, my Sergeant walked in (he is a Staff Sergeant I think) and greeted me and then went into the toilets. He usually comes to this base every so often as it's his favourite one. When he came back out of the toilets, he looked confused. He said "Wait a minute, why are you here!? Who let you in!? Does Corporal know you're here already?" I said to him I put the code in for the gate and walked in, and that I knew I wasn't supposed to be there yet but I wanted to get some exercise in early before training. You can do that but you have to ask and be buzzed in lol. But yeah he looked so bewildered and shocked as he knew I wasn't supposed to know that code, and once I explained everything to him, he said "you've chosen quite the day to do this... stay here" and then he walked out of the locker room.
    I was shitting myself lol. He came back in 15 minutes later with the bloody Lieutenant Colonel, of all people, who was there visiting the base at that time. Now he is obviously in charge of several bases and their commanders along with all of the staff officers and soldier ranked personnel below him which is around 650 people in this region. And he happened to be here at this military base, at this time, when I literally just broke into it by accident. Yeah... You can imagine how I was feeling. A very high ranking senior officer has just walked in the room to speak to me directly while the Sergeant stood at the side...
    He said to me something along the lines of "You do realise that you are technically trespassing right now because you have just illegally broke into one of Her Majesty the Queen's Royal Army Reserve Centres, right?" and I said "well yeah when you say it like that..." and I remember shitting myself thinking i'm going to be punished or arrested for gaining access to the base without permission, and then he just said "well never mind because luckily Sergeant Cork here knows who you are and he said it was just a mistake" then he told Sgt Cork to tell his Corporal to change the code immediately. He then said "if you happen to find out the code again, do NOT use it. You can only be here, when you're allowed to be here, okay?" I just nodded and sat there terrified in silence until he left and Sgt Cork came back in and said "you got lucky, just please don't do that again. Anyway Corporal Smith wants to know if you are up for some volleyball. He's upstairs." Then he left and I went upstairs to join Cpl Smith and played some volleyball with some other soldiers before training.
    Needless to say, the guy who told me the code in the first place got a disciplinary and had to go back and do some evaluation courses etc. Anyway I received no punishment, was allowed to stay in the army reserves and I still passed my assessments! So yeah that was a fucking scary moment lol. And I am no longer a member of the army reserves. I've not seen those guys in years now.
    Sorry LTC, Sgt Cork and Cpl Smith for all that!

Otherwise, you wasted time planning, prepping, and attempting to do this. There are also not enough conventions that sneaking into would make a good enough video for failing that often to be viable.

    I once accidentally snuck onto a cruise boat during late dinner time. I really needed to take a dump and they were kind enough to let me onto the ship once I explained it's an emergency and there are no toilets in the near vicinity. Once I was seated I could hear the engines start up. I assumed they are just turning it on for electricity or whatever and thought nothing of it. Things got suspicious when I was washing my hands and I felt the ship moving around a bit. At that moment my dad called me (he was on shore and waving at me, exiting the toilet) to say "goodbye my child" barely being able to speak as he was laughing way too hard. I found the guy who let me on the ship and he said they assumed I already left and then laughingly told me to have a seat and enjoy.
    It was a beautiful evening, seeing the fully lit city from a new perspective. I even got a glass of sparkling wine and they showed me the engine room. Unfortunately the guiding was in Portuguese so I didn't really understand it, but at least I made the Portuguese tourists laugh once they understood how I got onto the ship.

    My security story, is once I was going to see a football game, and when I passed the QR code the machine it didn’t work, and the machine of the guy next to me didn’t work aswell, so the security guy checked out tickets and naturally let us in. Then I was looking for my seat and someone was seated at my place, so I kindly asked him to move, which he replied it was his own seat. After double checking, I actually bought the football match of the week after, and actually got in by some random luck ! I literally broke into the stadium and realized only already inside 😂

    It reminds of the time, I used to enter my friend's hostel, He was in Police department so some excess security was there. We both lived in same city, Once when I went there to meet him, I called on his cellphone he didn't answer, I waited for a while then entered the building, Security was there but no question asked nor did one checked.
    I knew his room no. I entered his room, he was baffled, he asked how the fuck did i entered. And we were laughing as hell. Then when as we both were leaving, one of the security asked us to sign our names and batch no.
    I casually started chatting with one of the guard. For how long he has been there. About water cooler and all those things, and we became sort of friends now, and i got his cell no.
    So we left the building and from now I used to enter when soever I wanted,
    As some other guards saw me chatting to one of them, And now for all I work in the department. It went all the way for 3 years, Till my friend eventually got transferred. 🤣 We still laugh as I was never caught.

    They "know" I'm safe in the sense that a friendly 30-something woman with a delivery bag is clearly bringing food to one of their neighbors... but stalkers and horrible exes also look and act like regular people.
    Is there food in my bag? Am I truly going to the unit I say? You can't read my mind, so please just trust the dang system and make me jump through your security's hoops.

I'd even go up to the counter and ask nicely for tap water and they'd happily give it to me. One time I fell asleep and a barista politely shook my shoulder to check if I was okay. Never got chucked out like a lot of places will do with people who obviously are sleeping rough (I never had to sleep rough, always managed to find a couch or floor which also meant I could stay pretty clean and sometimes even had access to a washing machine I could utilise and that added to the acceptability I had - but during the day I had nowhere I could go thus the coffee chains). Obviously this is a pretty low threat level but I've also very much gotten away with crimes.

    Couple things (with 10+ years of convention staffing experience). TL;DR: The venue staff (guards, etc.) were fine. The event itself was responsible for enforcing it's particular rules, and failed to do so. Ease up on the venue security.
    1) The logistics & security staff (think badge check, metal detectors, etc), are often contracted by the building itself. The event doesn't hire them directly, they're priced into the cost of the venue. Likewise, the property owners want consistent security between dozens/hundreds of events. Those staff members aren't bad at their jobs or underpaid or whatever - they just have different priorities. They care about the, like, REALLY bad stuff: bombs, weapons, etc. Whether one show prohibits recording or another doesn't - just a blur to them. They're focused on protecting life. And they're doing a good job of it.
    2) When Max records the intro, you can hear him speaking much more softly. Keep in mind: the *video* recorder and the *audio* recorder are different devices. The security guard is holding the video recorder, and Max is holding the audio recorder in his pocket. It's a genius move - he speaks just softly enough that the convention floor noise covers his words, and I bet the security guard didn't hear a thing. If the guard could hear him, that would be cause enough to have Max escorted out. But - remember - the guard's loyalty isn't to the *show*, it's to the people attending it.
    3) This is proof positive that events need to bring *their own staff* to enforce the rules the show feels are important. Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) is an excellent example of this - they have the venue layer to protect life, but *hundreds* of volunteers Enforcing the event layer.
    Hope that provided some context! As far as I'm aware, nobody died at this convention, so the venue staff did their job :) Be nice to them!

They let me bypass security and pointed me down the hall. No ID. No bag check. No questions. Its amazing what straight posture and a lanyard will get you.

    Army veteran, former Walmart employee. I learned that if you wear the right uniform at either location, that's a (significantly) larger than zero percent chance you'll be able to access any place you want. Humans do not present the same personal or general security mindedness when they treat their employment as a daily routine (career military on burnout) as when they treat it as literal life and death. So any installation or secured area is only one burned out personnel member away from being completely unsecure.

    Here security guard, hold this camera while I say that I fraudulently entered this convention.
    The guard, it seemed, was not paid enough to care.

    Additionally, the security for these events are more of a deterrent for the general public rather than a complete locked event, considering all the information that are presented at these events, including the individuals speaking and attending, are all public knowledge. Though, the concept of getting into a "security convention" is in fact a laugh.

    This should be a national past time in the security community. Just red-teamers showing up and handing out their cards with a lanyard that says "Break N. Enter" or "Conrad Mann" or "Wier F. Raud."
