Uninvited tourists attend White House breakfast, meet Obama

Dumb luck, or is the Secret Service not paying attention? On Veteran's Day the Darden's of Hogansville, GA came to the White House to attend a tour. To their surprise they were led into the East Room where breakfast was being served for veterans.

Harvey Darden approached a White House staffer and told him they thought they were in the wrong place, the White House staffer asked Harvey if he was a veteran and when Harvey told him he was the White House staffer told him to go with the flow!!

The Darden's stayed put and got to meet the President, First Lady and the Vice President! Turns out the tour was the next day, the Darden's had the wrong day. When the Secret Service was questioned they said the Darden's passed the security checks and did not "crash" the event. Instead White House staff said occasionally they take members of the public to attend such events.
