Around '05 we were one of the first to board our flight from MSP to LAX. We were in the first row of coach and as we were boarding, we were held up by a shorter guy trying to cram an overstuffed bag into the first class overhead bin. I was thinking "what an idiot". The flight attendant helped him cram it in and he sat down. My husband asked if I knew who it was and I say yah, an idiot. He said it was Henry Winkler (the Fonz). It was funny watching people doing a double take as they walked down the aisle. A lot of people say 'ayyyyyyy!' as they walked by (original, huh?).

When we exited the plane, Henry got up, grabbed a very slender hanging bag from the overhead and exited the plane. The overstuffed bag belonged to a young woman in FC and he had just stuffed the bag up there to help her out. We followed him through the airport and he ended up walking by himself over to the parking garage with his small carryon. He looked pretty good for a guy who was a 'star' in the 70's.
