there's times when people were not breaking the law but for whatever reason were unable to provide sufficient proof to reclaim their money that's been highlighted widely in the news - it's nearly always people suspected of being drug dealers and just like every "zomg pokerstars unjustly banned my account and seized my funds" thread here, the narrator is wholly unreliable and rarely being 100% honest
having played in vegas you would easily be able to provide sufficient proof you're not going to buy drugs with the money nor that you got the money from selling drugs
but really, this

Have the cage wire it, cut a check, or carry the cash. Don't bring firearms, illegal drugs, or large containers of flammable liquids into the airport.
