Matt in KC Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I think it's a bipod that's not divided. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayFinkle Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I'm not sure, but how dare they tell me I can't bring one in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDBillzFan Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 It's a camera tripod, but with only one leg. Have never used one, but I think they're mostly for professional photographers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gross Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 as they are on the list of prohibited items in the stadium.What the hell is a monopod? 737377[/snapback] That's really out-dated. That's what they called I-Pods before they mastered stereophonic sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 It's a camera tripod, but with only one leg. Have never used one, but I think they're mostly for professional photographers. 737384[/snapback] Interesting. And it makes sense! Although I've never heard of monopod, it suprises me that they included that since they do list a tripod. Would there really be an argument at the gate over this issue? Security: you can't bring that in. Guy: why not? Security: no tripods allowed Guy: it's a monopod jackass I guess I could see this happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnykterstein Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Can you bring in a tripod, and then when at the game break off two of the legs and get a monopod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Well, it sounds like you can still get in if you only break one leg off of your tripod.... 737436[/snapback] Except that you can't bring in the leg you break off, because that would be a monopod. However, if you tie a monopod to a tripod, then it's a quadripod, and you can bring them both in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Why the hell would anyone want to bring an amoeba into a bills game?!? http://cancerweb.ncl.ac.uk/cgi-bin/omd?que...tion=Search+OMD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 That really sucks. Back in the film days, I would actually lug my camera and big lens in, and needed the monopod to support the lens. My guess is that it's not so much for security, but to prevent easier videotaping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X. Benedict Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 This is the 20th century people. It is a shame that we still discriminate based on how many pods a guy has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astrobot Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I have a monopod, too. As some of my videos were blurry last Thursday, I was going to bring it. Guess I'll have to rest my camera on the fence, or bring one of them tabletop tripods that fits in my pocket. But if the security guard hassles me, we're going mono a mono.
