I had almost the exact same thing happen to me! I was standing in line waiting to get in while the yellow shirted "security" officer was looking through peoples bags.
I had the goody bag I that I had been given the day before and opened it up holdingit right under the PT-111 I had holstered on my right hip and he motioned me on through.
As I was asking a young lady where the "box lunches" were being handed out, the same "security" officer ran up to me and said "Sir, Sir, can I speak to you over here?", and started motioning for me to go back over to where we were just in line. I said "Well,you're speaking to me right here, aren't you?". He then said " Well its just that you've got a ..., well, I can see it,its not concealed...". To which I happily replied "Clearly!!!". The "security" officer then said "Well, you're okay then.", and I said "Great, I'm so glad I'm 'okay', and have you're approval!", and then went on to collect my box lunch (which wasn't all that bad!!!), and vote!!!
Boy, the openly carried gun was about 6-8 inches from his head while he was bent down looking in my bag for ... a gun. That'sthe kind of"extra" security $35,000.00 buys? I'd be asking for a refund.

No issues.....but today ended with the following little exchange....
Ed and I left the coliseum to go to the car...realizing we were on the wrong side of the building, we re-entered the coliseum.Ayoung "security" staff member asked to look in our bags.
Ed said, "What are looking for?" And as the guy peered in his bag and then looked in mine...he said, "Just guns and stuff....you know." Ed said, "You mean like the one I have on my hip?"
The security guy shockingly goes "Oh $xxx!" Looks over to his supervisor and asks, "Is he allowed to have that?" The supervisor says, "It's okay."
LOL....Classic....
