DL 837 Feb07 ATL-HNL weight and balance issue

Anyone know why they had to yank 47 pax off today's ATL-HNL flight? I ran into a FA from that flight and noted to her that I had tried to SDC onto that plane but couldn't get on. She then told me about the weight and balance issue. 47 seems like a very large number of pax for W&B. I personally saw the A333 in HNL so I know it wasn't due to an equipment change.

I can't recall such a large number of pax getting VDB/IDB due to weight and balance on this route. I was inbound on a 763 today from SLC and we went out with a full load.
