Otakon 2009 - Official Bagpipe march video

This is the "official" video of my good friend Adam Green marching through Otakon while playing his bagpipes. Prior to this, he had piped us to and from lunch at harborplace, and around the BCC....twice. A female otaku then told me to have him remove his shirt - which he did. Then, the epicness started. Down the stairs to the right of the pratt street lobby, we rushed the door with nearly 50 people. I politely told the badge door guy to piss off, and through we were. Up the escalator, down the hallway, collecting our legion we went. The goal was to exit to the skybridge, which we got 30 feet from. This is where the video stops, because I then spent the next five minutes telling the security guard what I thought of him, his wife, his mother, and his face, and inciting the crowd to start booing said guard. We exited peacefully only to have an epic cheer outside, after which, he then played us ALL THE WAY BACK to the pratt street lobby down the sidewalk. Sorry for the video quality, it was taken with a 3gs, walking backwards, trying not to die. Many thanks to greenie for actually bringing our plan to fruition, to our new friends the scotsman photographer and our legion, and all my close friends for having the best otakon thus far! OTAKON 2009!

Okies here is where im at. First of all I respect your friend that he can play bagpipes. But thats not the case. The first thing is what was the purpose of what your friend did? I have read your description and what you did was insulting both a staff member and a security. Also your friend was impeding a traffic flow at the con which was people blocking areas and the escalators. For those reasons that is why your friend got kicked out. Next time, obey the rules and obey staff & security.
