Using an inconspicuous cover is crucial when smuggling things past bag-checking guards, but even the most inspired camouflage can fall short.
Using an inconspicuous cover is crucial when smuggling things past bag-checking guards, but even the most inspired camouflage can fall short.
According to the Newark Advertiser, a woman in the U.K. was caught trying get a bottle of Glen’s Vodka past Southwell Racecourse security even though she had well concealed it inside a giant salami sandwich.
It’s unclear how the guards knew to look inside the sizable baguette, but whatever the inspiration was, it guided them well.
Southwell Racecourse has since shared a photo of the vodka-filled sandwich and is offering an unspecified prize to the person who writes the best caption.
Glen’s Vodka has also gotten in on the fun, tweeting an image of a mouthwatering Bloody Mary and writing, “Meet our new favourite - Glen's Salami Sizzler. Think it'd do well on your bar menu @Southwell_Races??”
One person who does not seem to be enjoying the situation is the woman who got her vodka taken away.
UPI reports that the racecourse said she could pick it up on her way out, but she never did.
