Few years back I was waiting in the boarding area of a UA flight when the GA made an announcement that persons needing extra time are welcomed to board now. This guy standing a few feet away told his friend "watch this" and proceeded to the gate with a new very pronounced limp that he hadn't had a few minutes earlier. Breezed right by everyone else and onto the plane.
