1. The Magic 8 Ball
Who doesn’t know what the Magic 8 Ball is? Some would describe it as a childhood staple, but you’d be surprised to learn that even adults love it. So it’s no surprise that some would want to see the world with a Magic 8 Ball.
However, as soon as the TSA sees one in a bag, they take it away. Can you believe it? A Magic 8 Ball is a harmless object, right? Well, think again. The ball has liquid inside, but it contains much less than the TSA limit of 3.4 liquid ounces. While there’s no official explanation for why you can’t bring a Magic 8 Ball in your carry-on, we have to assume it violates the TSA rules.
But here’s something funny. Agents at TSA said, “For carry-on luggage, we asked the Magic 8 Ball, and it said, ‘Outlook not so good!’ For checked luggage, we asked the Magic 8 Ball again, and it said, ‘It is certain’.” Well, these TSA people should start doing stand-up comedy!
