We were not in the air 30 minutes before this guy's 3 other drunken buddies crashed the cabin to see him and he was drunkenly bragging about it to them so we could all hear. They even whipped out a camera and began taking pics of him, then they each sat in the seat and had their pic taken, all the while making wise cracks about "livin' the high life" and "don't be thinkin you're better than us!" and "Order some whiskeys and bring em back to us" etc. Oddly (although it was USAirways) it took the FA at least 5 minutes to even respond to this crap and kick them back to their own seats...and they still came back up once or twice. The FA cut the guy off the drinks (he was brining them back to his friends) he got nasty about it.
