key phrase: "as if we had a bomb" this is NYC, post-911... the MET has a bit higher profile than the Whitney. No doubt threats have been received... maybe attempts made. You wanted to check a box???!! Read the papers, watch the news, pal! Its a scary world out there. I would have come back another day, or maybe even tossed the boxed wine, bought a replacement later. "it is what it is." Security restrictions at large institutions can usually be enquired about beforehand.
