After trying to reason with Guard #1, (unfortunately I had not been smoking) I asked Guard #2 to "smell my hands and breath." After Guard #2 admitted there was no scent of pot on my hands or breath, Guard #1 became furious and escorted my friend and I, taking my tickets and keeping them. I even asked to speak to the police, which was when both Guard #1 and #2 dragged me to the door and threw me out (picture a bum being tossed from a bar).

This ends my first Tool Concert experience. Hopefully, I will make it to the London show, however I doubt I'll get there seeing as I spent all my money on the ticket (and two $14.50 beers).

Looks like I'll have to..
Be Patient.
Awful experience. Many dope smokers in and around 118 and nobody was tossed out. Tool will be back again in the future and all will be right in the end.
