might be a stupid question but has anybody and any issues traveling by plane with posters in your carry on? I don’t want to learn the hard way that you can’t.

    No problems with airlines or airport security whatsoever.

    The only problem I’ve ever had was someone trying to force their wheeled carry on bag into the overhead bins and not caring one bit that they could be crushing other passengers stuff that’s already in there. So just keep an eye out for that.

    Those tubes are pretty sturdy too...I just carry mine on (I don't put them in my carry-on bag) and I've never had an issue.

    Never had an issue. Was hoping these will arrive early. Will have to test them out on the next tour.

    You can always mail it home if you’re nervous.

    I always just fold them up and put them in the backpack.  No problem.  Just unfold and nail onto the wall when you get home.
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.
