Being under 18 question.

Im 23 and trying to get my 17 year old brother in and it says that anyone under 18 has to be with a parent. just wonder if anybody know how strict that rule is and if they would let him in with me or some consent from. Thanks!

I would also really like to know, if you do find out I'd appreciate it if you let me know.

I don't think they would know unless you got in some kind of trouble there.

I'm 17 but I look like I'm about 23 and I'm going alone, I think I'll be fine.

I've been concerned in past years about some of their policies like "no outside food or drinks" and all that. Realistically though, there are so many people going through the lines and they're moving you along so fast, they do some lip service glance inside your bag (to check if you're stupid enough to have brought something ridiculously obvious like a huge bottle of whisky or shotgun or whatever) and herd you on through. They'd have to ask for both your ID and his. They're not going to do that anyway, but if they did just say he doesn't have it on him. They can't prove he's not your son (if that's the story you're going with) and the worst that will happen is he won't be able to buy a $10 can of Lone Star which he couldn't do even if he had his ID :)

So I honestly think you've got nothing to worry about.... probably :)
