Have any of yall ever noticed sometimes that you'll take a flight out somewhere and then (non MR, i'd presume) on your return home 1, 2, 3, however many days later you recognize people from your flight out on the same flight home?

I had this happen last weekend as I was going UAL IAD-IAH on Friday Morning. I was seated in E+ and there was this annoying family of a man, his brother brother (uncle jim) and his son one row in front of me, screaming across the aisle and to someone a row behind me.

They were terribly annoying...the son and his uncle were really loud and such, but whatever, it was a 3 hr flight...no big deal...

Until I return to IAH to fly home to IAD on Sunday morning, and guess who's boarding the ERJ just as I do? The same three guys...and the same behavior on the way home...

I don't know, just wondered if anyone has experienced this (annoying or otherwise).....
