Passenger next to me brought his 2x4 case filled with cues on the plane. I asked him if any trouble at TSA. He said none at all. Flight is from ATL to PHL.

I’ve seen this with my own eyes a couple times in the past 2-3 years.

FYI.

I gotta think he got really lucky.

I wouldn't roll the dice until I saw something indicating a change in the current, published policy.

Sure would like to see that change though...
 
Diff airports have diff rules.
TSA says no to bats.
I put our equipment along side Baseball Bats.

Don’t do it……someone else runs a red light and gets away with it. Doesn’t mean you’ll have the same fate.
Aside from the fact that you could get a ticket despite not seeing a cop, accidents are even more expensive.

Unless you are willing to endure insufferable problems and maybe even miss your flight, don’t do it. The rules
are lucidly clear. Think about it. My son is a practitioner of JuJitsu, knife and Phillipino stick fighting. I’ve seen
him practice at his Dojo. When you see what can be done holding a couple of pieces of wood, like cue butts
are, you can be killed pretty fast with a couple of quick blows strategically delivered to one’s throat & head.

Someone that is skilled, standing in an tight aisle on a plane, would be difficult to subdue. Stick fighting is a
real martial art and its practitioners can be highly skilled and deadly. When you see how fast & hard the blows
are, you would not want to confront someone trained in it unless you had a gun. TSA frowns on guns on planes.

TSA is not going to become lazy and relax the stipulated rules about what can be transported on your plane flight.

AFAIK, the rules have not changed. Sounds like someone at ATL TSA isn't doing their job, a lapse in security which is why the cues made it onboard. Next time it could be a guy with a gun.

Roll dem bones.

Your cues might go with you, or...

how much do you care?
or, even better: how much are they worth?
