I again attempted to show him my boarding pass with 1C printed on it and he still insisted that I was in 1A. Anyway, by this time coach class was boarding and it was a full flight, and I didn't want to obstruct boarding in the single-aisle aircraft (B737-700), so I just reluctantly relegated my self to 1A. Fortunately, no middle seat and no hygienically challenged passengers up front.
You should have knelt down and whispered in his ear "I am Jesus Christ, son of God, and this is your test."

The trick is keeping a straight face.
