At a recent con which shall remain nameless, we had to go through a bag check before entering the convention center. There were no metal detectors; instead, the security staff had, I kid you not, wooden salad spoons. They did a perfunctory wave over and inside the bags for a couple seconds, determined that no arugula was present, and let us in.
Oh, and I've never actually heard of a con confiscating outside water. I really hope that doesn't become a thing.
