Could This Be The Worst Airport Lounge Ever?
Traveling from Charlotte to Hong Kong via Chicago, the second flight was delayed so
HKGNZL was stuck in a lounge at the airport for seven hours. Many people would not mind that all that much, as a lounge offers a respite from the busy gate areas of the airport but this particular lounge was essentially a large room with not enough chairs for its patrons. When this airport lounge reached its capacity, guests were denied entry and had to be turned away from this very crowded and noisy lounge in which working was difficult to do. The only sustenance that was offered was food in packets and canned drinks. The lounge did not even have its own bathroom let alone any shower facilities.
Would this place qualify as the worst airport lounge ever?

I think Talkmail added the question
But the answer will be no, or at least, not the first:

There used to be a Unionpay credit card lounge in the basement of the unrestricted area of HKG old Terminal 2 (presently being demolished and rebuilt).
The missus and I went in once just for kicks. Its windowless, no bigger than a 29 metre square hotel room, can sit about 6 and only offered Coke or Sprite poured from a large bottle taken from a fridge.
We took some snaps, finished our Coke, walked out and burst out laughing.
