Instant I.D.

As 2006 World Champion Jamie Gold tried to enter the Amazon Room he found he didn't have his seat card. And as security won't let anyone inside without their seat card, that posed a bit of a problem. Gold wanted to go to the registration window but security wouldn't let him in without I.D.

Well, there are HUGE posters of every Main Event champion hanging around the room and Gold reached inside the frame of the door, pointed up, and said, "Dude, look up, that's me!" Other people waiting outside the tournament room verified Gold's identity and the guard let him inside to get a new seat card.
