Staff Pro Security

Yesterday Chris and I worked a 12 hour day as Staff Pro Security Guards for the Seattle Seahawks. Although it was alot of being on your feet and we only got (1) 25 minute break in that time, we had quite the fun.

The first 8 hours we worked in an area called Friends and Family in which we were security for all the VIP people that get into Qwest Field. We got to see the majority of the Seahawks from 2 feet away, including the coach's from both the Seahawks and the Cardinals. Chris also got to pat down Warren Moon and Steve Riebl!!! How awesome is that. We saw some very neat people yesterday.

After that, the next 2 hours were spent in the main corridor of the Seahawks and the Sea gals locker rooms. I worked the corridor and didn't allow anyone through unless they had a pass, while Chris worked the area next to me guarding the food! LOL! I think his best moment was being in charge of the gates while the Sea Gals ran back and forth from the game to their locker room! :)

The last 2 hours I was in charge of Freight Elevator number 2. Yup, you guessed it, I got to press the buttons and make the elevator go up and down. The highlight of this job was when I had to escort a prisoner who had been tasered from the upper concourse (level 5) all the way down to the field level. And of course there were stops on every floor of the way down, with the prisoner yelling the whole time. Lots of fun.
