An American Airlines passenger reportedly passed gas and loudly bragged about it on a recent flight from Phoenix to Austin. A fellow flyer documented the smelly incident on an Austin Subreddit. The plane was forced to return to the gate and the passenger was removed. What a story! I’d be pretty damn pissed if someone caused a delay because of farts. lol. Impressive that they gave him the boot. Excessively Farting Passenger Causes American Airlines Flight to Turn Around
This is hitting close to home. I flew American yesterday and had a long layover in DC. I decided to have some airport Chinese beef and broccoli for dinner. I was definitely concerned with the flatulence affect, but all was fine.
Gives new meaning to the term "air biscuit." Apparently the breaking winds caused a back draft. Brown clouds, hot winds, under thunder, and rectal turbulence can be treacherous, esp for airplanes. Things banned on American airlines flights: Butt trumpets, cornhole claps, sphincter sirens, crack concerts, and drifters. This passenger may have been fine if he didn't toot his own horn.
Many years ago family was on a flight and sometime after takeoff there was a smell of crap. My young autistic son yelled out angrily “WHO FARTED!!” At that point most people were fairly quiet so when many passengers heard that quite a bit of laughter ensued. We were near the back so it could have been the bathroom.
This board is getting sloppy. I remember a time when a great story like this one would be posted and discussed thoroughly. Looks like I saved Too Hot….again.
Farty passenger forces flight to make emergency landing Took a few minutes to find this but I remembered from a few years ago
Don’t know where you found that but I have tears in my eyes from laughing like I was still 12. Also, because it reminded me of my first year in college where the roomies and I left a cassette recorder on our living room coffee table for us to capture every fart that we could. There were some related to “greenlight” farts when urinating (reference Two and a Half Men episode w/Kandi) but since one of my mottoes is “I ain’t admitting a damn thing” I cannot verify which roommate added those to the tape. When we had a full 30 minute tape of such sound effects and related joviality we mailed it to a buddy at a different school. He was both impressed with us and embarrassed for us.
Had a blast. I probably don't have to tell you but the snow was about as good as I think it gets in the northeast. Lots of Heady Topper and Focal Banger was consumed, as well as a road trip to Hill Farmstead. 9/10 would bang again.
I cut it to the last few minutes because I didn't think anybody would want to listen to the full 18 minutes of the World Farting Championships although the full length broadcast is indeed fun to listen to. I had this on 8 track tape in the 70s and if you rode in my car you had to listen to it.
The soundboard has been around since at least 2002. Some wiseass with a long forgotten name posted it on the original Bizarro Pub. I filed the name of the soundboard site away and when my first grandchild arrived a few years later I opened the link for her entertainment. When she was old enough and mature enough to understand and appreciate it, of course. About 4yo. All 6 of our grandkids have played around on that silly soundboard at one time or the other. There's another reason I make light of it. When Trucker was growing up, the youngest of 4 brothers, he remembers his mother would take dramatic over-offense if any of them farted. The attitude carried over into later years when I knew her. To fight off the stigma and let Trucker know his farts did not offend me as they did his mother, I made a reply of, "I love you, too." Been doing it for more than 55 years. Farts away, Boys.
Just flew to the west coast with the fam two weeks ago. My wife and two daughters sat behind my son and I on the LAX>ATL leg. At one point my 17 year old daughter leans forward and asks if my (middle school)son farted. I just looked at her brother with that "dude, seriously??" look on my face. He said nothing as he stared at the screen, but his grin gave him away. My wife and 19 year old slept through it, but my feisty 17 year old wanted to rip his head off.
