Embassy Theater, Ft. Wayne

[alabasterjar]

Taking the family to the Embassy Theater in Ft. Wayne this weekend. They've made it clear they will be doing theater on stage as well as at the door in the form of bag checks. No word on wands or pat downs. Anyone know what brand of security theater they employ at the Embassy?

I believe they are off duty police, I have not seen any "wanding" just visual check of waist band lift shirt etc. That has been for concerts not sure they were that nosy at say Festival of Trees.

Went to an afternoon movie at the Embassy last month. Only the geriatric volunteer ticket takers at the entrance with a pleasant smile. No issues or concerns at all for that event. Security may vary based on the event.

I was there for a Christmas musical special last December. Wands were used, and there were official police officers present. I saw several men sent back to their cars to stow their pocket knives, and a few were surrendered rather than make the long walk back to the car. I did not see any firearms, but as the word spread down the line of the wands I did see some men leave the line and walk away. May have been CCing, or maybe just knives.

As said above, it depends on the attraction.

Thank you all for the heads up.

Winner, winner chicken dinner! Wanted to see the waistline,, inside of jacket & pockets. No wands, no patdowns, etc. Deep concealment worked just fine....
