Awesome. Similar thing happened to me a few years ago. I was 24 or 25, on a full F last minute fare (as it was the only thing available) for an emergency meeting the next morning. I was dressed in shorts, a polo, faded Detroit Tigers hat, and flip flops... Apparently the older, very distressed gent next to me wasn't impressed and made it known that someone he worked with / significant other / friend (I forget the specifics) was much more "deserving" of my seat. It was at that point I ordered a vodka, put on my sunglasses, opened my MacBook, pulled out my headphones, and watched "Beavis and Butt-Head" reruns for the next two hours.

Dude was visibly upset. I hope he still thinks about me and shakes with rage.
