Had some dodgy marlboro taken off me. Probably for the best really, when i had one of the ones my mate managed to get through it lit up like a sparkler.

Are you sure it didnt say 'oakrey'.
 
Slightly different as non of my belongings were fake and it wasn't customs but..

I went to villa away a few years back which was a night game. Living in London at the time I stayed over at a pals so I had an over night bag with me. This jobsworth steward was searching through my stuff and took about 30 quids worth of toiletries from me. He even took hair product, fucking hair product!! What was I going to do with that? Gel somebody's hair?

There was a woman copper just shaking her head laughing at the jobsworth steward. Some people are really thick.
 
Not me but travelled with a mate once who had a toy gun in his back pack. Lord knows why, he doesnt have any kids to blame, was weird they tutted threw it in the bin they have for stuff, but then got really worked up over a tripod for his camera, he didnt have the camera with him, dont know what they thought it was, but they werent happy, we were moved to another room. I thought i was getting a finger up my arse and i hadnt even got to Amsterdam yet!! They didnt split us up, but we didnt say much (probably watching us all the time) after a while a more senior guy came in and said it was fine and we could go.
 
Had some trouble once at a small airport in Denmark, a large knife shaped object showed up in my bag on the xray machines. I was pulled aside for them to open it, inside they found one of those plastic cone shaped bags full of sugary strawberry sweets like you would get from a fair. The look on their faces when that was all that was revealed was a picture. I think they thought they were onto something major bless them!
 
The jobsworth's at Manchester airport (which is truly full of em!) pulled me up because my clear plastic bag containg my toiletries was to big (by about an inch either way). The clown made me take them all out and put them in a smaller plastic bag which luckily I had in my suitcase.
After he had made me do this and watched me do it - item by item I held the bag up to him and asked him 'is that ok now?' he replied 'yes'.

I then took the smaller bag with the items in it and placed inside the original bigger bag and sealed it up and asked him 'is that OK?'
He replied 'yes'. I put the stuff in my case zipped it up and went through.
YCMU. Jobsworth doesn't even begin to explain it does it?

Same thing happened to me in liverpool airport. Them fuckers charge you for a bag though! so had to get all my stuff together, go and buy one from teh vending machine and join the back of the queue. The bag i had must of been no more than 5cm bigger
 
I was coming back through a French airport when they decided my electric Bosch jigsaw wasn't getting on the plane with me. I deliberately had no blades with me but still they said no, I showed them it needed a plug to work and planes don't have plugs. They were desperately thinking for ages for a reason why it couldn't go in my hand luggage and eventually said it was weight. If it fell from an overhead locker it would hurt someone !!!

Bloody French.
 
Nearly missed my flight coming back from Norway. I had been Nordic skiing and at the air port my mate bought a pair of walking boots at the air port.

We ended up swapping luggage about to cater for these boots. He didn't tell me about a blade he had in his first aid kit which I put in my rucksack. The Norwegian police were not happy with it, I remember the woman measuring it for ages. I told her that it's not gonna grow in length is it? Eventually she let me go and only just caught my flight.
 
Wankers who work at these customs/airports should be made to pay for the time youve lost thro them being dickheads...they stop my mother in law every time she goes thro and shes 76..do they think shes mar baker or something..you should be able to just say eh mate just fuck off and if you want to search my bags and find nothing im going to smash that gormy spotty ugly face all over this airport,

The woman who sits next to me at home games went to West Brom a couple of seasons ago and had her perfume confiscated by the stewards.
Back to customs clowns - about ten years ago I was returning from an Aikido course in France and had a bag of wooden weapons in the boot of the car. We were pulled over before boarding the train at the channel tunnel and three of the muppets poked around in the boot without finding the weapons bag. OK they were probably searching for booze and fags but you think they'd have noticed.
