Nope - load of b*llocks
Know of a few that risked it with other people's tickets, and have got in without any problem
do you think this would be a problem at the amex on Monday? i have a ticket in a women's name
risky?
Although I did have ID, when asked and quite by mistake I managed to pull out my train ticket, however this was deemed more than acceptable by the friendly steward who glanced at my orange piece of thin card and announced "that's fine mate, thank you" Might try this ruse again if I ever forget to take my passport to Gatwick!

Yes. Twice on the same queue

Yes.
I got asked whether I had ID, to which I showed the steward my driving licence......as noted above, a useless exercise as names weren't on tickets, and my ID could have belonged to anyone. I hope the Met are happy with the logic of this ridiculous requirement.

Did the met also beat a programme seller to death this evening?
Shambles!
The Met Police I spoke to and there were several knew nothing about it, neither did the Palace steward.
The person who asked me was the steward Brighton provided and then had to communicate with the Head Steward because my name wasn't on the ticket
** Incidentally the Met Police I spoke to were co-operative, up for some banter and did a great job....

Yes showed bus pass. Pointless excercise. Didn't even look at my ticket or tear off the stub.

They scan the bar code on the stub which is why it isn't torn off.

Fortunately , Gus & Leo aren't Brazilian, otherwise they may have been in 'bother'.
Yes. As we went through the turnstiles. I realised afterwards that I had shown the steward the inside of my wallet not my driving licence but he'd still just waved me through. Think [MENTION=12066]salazar[/MENTION] showed the top of a cornflake box and was gaily waved past. But the id think was far more about dissuading some of the Herbert's than enforcement on the day.
And it worked.
Ridiculous that so many were getting their knickers in a twist about the ID thing, getting legal advice etc.

In London village.
Asked to show it when we went into the ground , produced it and joked to the steward that it told him nothing about me and received a friendly smile and the reply "yeah, I know bollocks is n't mate".

No I'm alive and well and received no beating.
The steward in my lime knows me and still asked to see Id ,so was Justin exercise they were asked or perform and needed to be seen to be doing it.

Pointless had to show ID at turn style but not searched. So OK to bring guns knives flares and anything else into the ground providing you wave something in the air when asked for ID
