Restrictions on what you can and cannot take on an airplane can be confusing. For instance, if one's carrying a power bank, it needs to go in as a carry-on. However, if somebody is carrying a replica weapon, it needs to go in as checked luggage. This can be problematic for people who are Warcraft fans who have combined the two items.

Let this be a lesson to convention attendees, game cosplayers, and everyone else who might want to pack a greathammer for their next trip. Putting a power bank inside the relic is a great idea — until one realizes that it needs to be stowed inside their carry-on and their checked bag simultaneously.

It's worth noting that whoever runs the AskTSA Twitter account clearly has a basic knowledge of Warcraft lore. While World of Warcraft has seen its ups and downs in recent years, it's clear that the franchise as a whole still has a great deal of cultural cachet.

The Warcraft franchise is one of Blizzard's most enduring series in the company's history.
