Which would be another fun way to Sierra Charlie Romeo Echo Whiskey with the screener/ID checker, come to think of it. Cheesy pseudo-Spanish accent optional.
I wish I was kidding with this story, but my buddy is a pilot for ASA and he had a guy wear that shirt or one like it on one of his flights. Apparently he was sitting next to some Muslims who notified the flight attendant that she was uncomfortable because I guess she figured he was the relative of some 9/11 victim looking for vengeance or something.

She came to my friend the pilot with the info (neither of them knew the reference ) and they ended up moving the guy to another seat. It wasn't until the FA googled it on her phone after the flight that they realized it was from The Princess Bride
