Porn Valley- I was talking to this guy Rob on the set of ArchAngel's Vampire Chronicles this week. Rob, who's into body piercing and tattooing, played one of the vampires in the movie and I hear a very funny story concerning him and his balls. Rob, you see, wears more titanium than an H-bomb. But all his body adornments used to be made of silver and therein was the problem. Rob walked through airport security in St. Louis and set off alarms.
According to Rob the incident happened maybe 12 years ago before piercings became vogue.
"It was before I had titanium jewelry," he says. "It was all stainless steel. I was at the St. Louis airport. I'm walking through the thing and it beeps. And there's this woman there who had to be 65, 70 years old. She wands me. When she went by my crotch, the wand went off. In one quick move, she threw the wand and drew a gun. She's like shaking the gun at me. I'm trying to explain to her what's going on. All she's doing is screaming at me, get down on the ground! I get down on the ground and all these security guys show up and shit. They've all got their guns on me. One guy is, like, what do you got? I'm looking at him. I got a bunch of rings on my balls. He's like, what? He lets me up and I go let's go to the bathroom and I'll show you. So I go in there and I drop trou. And I show him the rings. He starts laughing. He goes back to the old woman and explains to her that I've got a bunch of earrings on my balls. She goes, what!!? Her jaw just dropped and she just waved me through. I ended up getting a free round trip ticket to anywhere in the United States. That was funny. For sure I thought I was going to get shot. This must have been the first time she pulled a gun on somebody. It was not a good time at all. She had no clue.
