re: Airport Madness......Weirdest thing you've ever seen at the airport/while flying

Couple years after 9/11 was getting on 2am flight in Taipei some dude starts screaming in Chinese at the airline people of which there are like 3 in the whole damn terminal. Found out later he was screaming asking what was taking so long when there was only one plane to be loaded.
No shite, out of nowhere 4 soldiers come running out of somewhere with machine guns and essentially do a Chinese Rodney king on the guy and then just haul him away.
I've always assumed he got sent to Siberia.

I agree. It's a little too try-hard-ish.

I've sat next to a few famous people. Hulk Hogan on one, Tracey Wolfson on another, SVP on a recent one. Saw Stephen A Smith last week. I'm sure there are others, but none that come to mind.
I had someone have a heart attack right before we took off in ATL. I have never taxied back so fast. I swear we went 200 mph back to the gate. ATC must have cleared the entire airport for us to get back that quick...we almost took off we were going so fast. This all happened after us sitting on the jetway for 3 hours. I got off the plane that night and took a flight the next morning. I felt all of that was some kind of sign. They did the "Do we have any doctors on board?" shout out.

Should've just had Delta send the Porsche.

I had an absolutely gorgeous blond German medical student sit next to me on a Southwest flight. She has a boyfriend in Dallas, but we talked the entire time.
I've gotten a few numbers from striking up a conversation within girls next to me.

Not yet. One day my friend, one day.
I have seen it cruising the tarmac though.

Yea. It's apparently only for diamonds that have short connections from domestic to international flights.

They should have freaking picked me up today too. Bastards

I saw Richard Gere with two supermodels in the Anchorage Airport. I guess they were headed to the Far East to see the Dalai Lama.

From what I hear DL is testing some new thing out, it's above Diamond. Kinda like AA ConciergeKey.
ETA: I just finished a Platinum challenge with AA, pretty easy. I like flying through DFW and O'Hare anyway and I like their lounges a lot better. Not to mention the recent merger with United.

I was sitting in a bar in the Charlotte Airport when a guy wearing white linen knickers fell right off the bar stool onto the ground. He gets up goes to the bathroom and comes back with the whole front of his pants soaked with piss. He paid his bill and left, the waitress then called security to flag him from alcohol and flying. I took a picture and sent it to my friends.

I saw a German shepherd drug sniffing dog take down a druggie in the baggage claim area in Frankfurt, Germany's airport. The druggie was screaming for his life.
And when I say, German shepherd....I mean f*cking GERMAN shepard.
Or, as they call them in Frankfurt, a shepherd....
Also, I was curious as to what they actually call them in Germany...apparently they're the "Schäferhund", or "Shepherd Dog". You were right!

10,000 EQP in 3 months, had to pay ~$200 to do it. You can do Gold for 5,000 and like $120.
Best part is that miles on US Airways flights count towards it now.

Sat next to Mary Landrieu on my flight back from DC last December. She ended up smashing her arse in my face.
