I got a little swiss army-type thing called a hobo tool. s'got my fork, spoon and other utensils for my grilled foods..its also got a little blade on it. Will it be confiscated?
Ha, that's his deal. None of the people in my group thought much about knives last year, I was just curious if he'd get grief about it. We just know we'll need a rope and a knife.
They tried to give me crap about a Leatherman Tool and a Maglite one year that I used day parking. I just asked for the supervisor and said "Um, a flashlight isn't on the prohibited list, and the blade on this is only 2" long and one of 15 other tools. Are you guys serious?" He waved me through with a tired look on his face. I still gave them beers....

The hydrolics in my hatchback don't work, so I use a broom handle to hold the hatch up. When the guy saw it in my trunk he said what the hell is that, so I demonstrated, and he said nice try, but no weapons allowed in... so I waved over another guy who said "You're a schmuck" to his co-worker, and waved me through. If you get an idiot, call over someone else for a 2nd opinion, 'cause most of the crew is normal.
I actually did hear a story about a guy last year running around with a hunting knife threatening people and slashing tires, somewhere around Shakedown. That boy musta got the brown acid.

You'll be fine through the gate, but you may have some trouble if you try to take it into Centeroo. I got some crap last year for the small Leatherman on my keys, but eventually the guy did let me through.

Because me and my friend were talking about how we have to bring a knife and a rope. (Think Boondock Saints...)
After all, "Charlie Bronson always had rope, and he always ended up using it."
(Bonehead question, I'm sure, but how do you give karma? 'Cause oopsikillednana deserves it for that.)
you click "exalt" for good and "smite" for bad. look below the person's avatar. And it appears to be non-operational at the moment. Oh, and you can only give out one per hour I think.

This is exactly right. I bring a folding knife that is almost the length of my hand when closed for all sorts of random uses. You should absolutley bring rope/string and a knife. I brought 100 ft. of string last year and could have used more - I know it sounds weird, but you'll see. Not to mention it's always good to have some to share with the neighbors.
