Oh, please—Southwest is a MEAN BULLY because this man is TOO BIG for a seat and their policy (which has been around for how long? YEARS??) is that he would need to purchase another seat so he would fit! Oh, the HUGH MANATEE!!!! :-O
Yeah, whoever checked them in screwed up, but the drama the news team is projecting?? None there, because they got where they wanted to go.
I’m wondering if the bus company made him pay for an extra seat...
Capitol Steps had a song way back to the tune of “Lyin’ Eyes” by the Eagles: “You can’t fly/With giant thighs/If you must, we’ll supersize...”
I’m 285 pounds, 5’9”, and have never had a problem with Southwest myself. I fit, at least.
