Southwest airlines refused to allow a tubby man to take a seat.

What is up with this. I wonder if legal action has any weight in this here matter.

Did they offer to sell him three seats and five boxed lunches? If so, it is all good.

This past June, Southwest Airlines took the bold - and much appreciated by the vast majority of their customers - step of making it policy for overly fat people to buy two seats (second one at half price) if they want to fly Southwest.

I'm amazed that there's any controversy at all regarding this. If you pay for one seat you may only use ONE seat. If you can't fit in one seat then pay for two seats, or lose some weight. Simple really.

Sounds simple but in practice it's not always so clear whether you're using one or two setas. What exactly is the line. I recently sat next to a big dude on a plane. His body probably was not touching my seat but he was huge and his arms were huge so that he certainly used the whole armrest are and then some. I had to sit like a sardine and leaning the other way. Is that a two-seater?

How exactly do you draw the line?

Huge ass pay for two...Huge upper body and muscular arms we're not asking you to do anything you don't want to do...

So I have to live with someone's arms all over me because they can't keep them in their seat? What if the ass technically fits in the seat but the rest of their legs protrude over into the neighbor's area?

So basically the objective test will be an ass circumference measurement? Sometimes it's hard to tell where the ass ends and the legs begin.

Again, as you can see, not so easy in practice.

Basically it's easier to tell a fat ass to buy two seats than it is a roid monkey
