not that there is not any humor in other Delta forum threads, but I figure starting a centralized, positive place where a fellow FlyerTalker could use a humor “fix” would give everybody a quick way to find funny anecdotes and thoughts related to Delta Air Lines.

Geeze! - Here I thought all the threads and post had to be humerous - trying so hard to comply!. What am a poor fellow like me going to do if everythime I try to be funny in a post elsewhere (and fail) I am pointed to this thread by the more senior and stern members of this board?

Anyways, I think the following is an Urban legend, but nevertheless it is a funny one as we all to some extend have witnessed something similar:

A flight had been canceled and all passengers had to be rebooked creating a huge line in front of the gate. A man in an expensive tailor made suit stormed up to the desk in front of everybody else and said:

"excuse me - I need to be rebooked immediately in First class".

The gate agent continued to serve the passenger she was busy rebooking and said:

"Sir, you will have to go to the back of the line and I will be happy to rebook you when it is your turn".

To this the man became flustered and agitated and said loudly

"DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?".

To which the gate agent without blinking responded by taking the microphone and announce to the gate area:

"Folks! - There is a man here who does not who he is - if anybody should know who he is - please let me know so I can tell him".

Everybody in line lauhghed loudly as they had been following this spectacle, and the man more flustered than ever stormed off and away from the gate.

As I said, I think this is an Urban legend as I have heard it with various airlines involved (including Delta - hence my excuse from posting it here) - but never-the less, my small contribution to continue this thread.
