NFL Security is, just from what public accounts I've ever read, very, very thorough. I doubt it approaches Secret Service colonoscopy-type checks, but it's probably very thorough.

If you've ever read any of Peter Gent's books, in at least one of them he goes into Investico (I think was the name), a pseudonym for NFL Security and details all the stuff they do. Gent veils a lot of inside stuff inside his books (and, like all authors, he probably embellishes some of it). I think The Franchise is the most detailed of his works, even moreso than North Dallas Forty and its sequel.
