About
Airport Security vs. Water refer to jokes mocking restrictions that prohibit passengers from bringing bottles of water through security checkpoints at the airport.
Origin
In 2006, the directive that prohibited bottles of water was put in place by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). TSA agents and passengers are expected to follow the β3-1-1β rule for liquids. Those boarding planes can carry 3.4 ounces of liquid per container in a 1-quart bag, with one bag per passenger. [1]
