I attended the US Open over the weekend with no problems what so ever. Last Night I went to the night session. Went through the bag check with no problems, As I am about to enter the grounds of the US Open I am approached by a so called Security Supervisor who tells me that I Will not be able to enter with my 100-400 lens. He gives me no explanation why, just that I can't go in with it, he escorts me out. In the US Open security there is no mention of a lens being prohibited, so I guess my lens falls under the last category something that is deemed unlawful or dangerous by the USTA.
Well long story short I went to another gate and got in with no problems. So it seems these security guys are making up their own rules.
