GREEN BAY, Wisc. — Everyone knows you can't bring fluids over 3.4 ounces, liquid bleach or even bowling pins on airplanes. Well, replicas of explosives... that's also a big no-no.

Officials say Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers at the Green Bay Austin Straubel International Airport stopped a novelty grenade last week.

TSA Great Lakes said officers found it in a passenger's carry-on bag.

"Leave the replica at home," TSA Great Lakes tweeted.
