Just an FYI- when the signs leading up to an events entrance boldly proclaims "NO BACKPACKS", especially in say Boston less than 3 months from a bombing that involved backpacks as the delivery agent, the staff at the security checkpoint really won't let you bring any in.
I was at the Boston Pops last night with my gf to enjoy the concert at the Esplande and fireworks show over the Charlies. The first trip in the security area in the morning to get a feel for where to seat and what drinks cost went good; when we returned in the evening we got stuck behind several groups who couldn't understand why they weren't being allowed to bring their backpacks in. Lots of whining, complaining, asking for managers and begging for special dispensation only resulted in the Massachusetts State Police wandering over and taking an interest. Sadly we cleared security (cus we have that rare thing called "common sense" and looked up what was allowed in ahead of time) once the they complainers were moved aside and never got to see what their final choice or how involved the police got with them.
