It seems like on these boards, I've heard both sides. Some say you can sneak it in a back pack, others say it is hard. Can someone tell me what strategy they use to try and keep outside beer out of Centeroo? Is it easy to sneak it in? What's your strategy to sneak it in? Thanks for any help
It all depends on how lucky you get when you get searched goin' in to Centeroo really. There's no strategy or plannin' that could help you. Some of the people barely look you over, and I've heard of others that will make you empty your camelback full of water just to enter. It's kinda like what campsite you'll end up at: a complete and total crapshoot.
She means that you gotta shove it up your anus. Put some ice up there too. The human body can be quite the cooler, if you're willing to go the extra mile.

I've gotten through security many times with a camelbak full of beer, but if you're thinking of sneaking in cans of beer, forget about it. There's just no good way to hide a beer can (i've heard pringles canisters work tho), and with beer, you need more than 1-2 for it to be worth it. If you don't want to waste your time/money, smuggle some liquor in a small flask (you can even get a cell-phone flask for $20 if you want to bother, but hiding it well will make that a non-issue).
Also most of the people I camp with are convinced that girls have a better time sneaking stuff in than guys. Your results may vary.

SFA is 100% correct about this. Works every time.
And Dan'ROO is right about how you retrieve your beers once you're safely inside.
haha, this thread is awesome. To answer cyclist's question, I've done it before, but sometimes its not worth it. My group has had their cans taken from them while they were drinking them inside centeroo.
the key is to buy a beer once your in and just feel the cup they gave you with what u bring in.. as for getting your beer in I would advise ppl not to post their strategy on the board and ruin it for everybody else

Just get an idea of how the security people work. If you're paying attention you can tell who's being a hardass and who's more relaxed at patting people down. Shift over to the obvious line. Also, I'd recommend not having a backpack at the time. You usually get through with much less hassle.

wow so they actually pat you down to enter centeroo? thats balls. i was thinking it would be easy peasy as a female to slip a flask in some biker shorts or spanx under the skirt. guess that might not even work. boo.
although i guess i could do what i do at any other concert i attend which is buy a 10 pack (or several in the case of a music festival) of shot sized liquor bottles and hide them in the cleavage

Yes and no. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason to it. Sometimes security is tighter then others. It's generally a very light pat down regardless.
This is one of those topics that's useless to discuss. Everyone's mileage will be different. Just get a feel for the gates and you'll figure it out after a day or so. If you can't figure out how to do it then you are probable to young to be drinking anyway.
No need to brag about the boobie trick! Lucky!

I'd much rather save the boobage and cleavage space for other contraband items, if necessary, plus its my sometimes cell phone holder. Love to see people's reaction when the cleavage starts ringin' lol.

ill probably hardly use my phone and therefore keep it in my bag but i totally do this all the time and i agree, its hilarious when the cleavage starts ringing or when the cell lights up under the shirt, haha.
