President Obama got a taste of the White House’s security measures Friday.

The pool reports that the President went through the metal detector at the White House gate house and set it off a few times.

“I think I beeped a couple of times,” Obama said to a nearby reporter. “I just wanted to see what it was like getting in here.”
