Eventually, a passenger went barrelling to the front of line line dismissively bumping half the other passengers along the way. When a few people politely let him know there was a line, he turned around, glared, waved his ticket, and said: "EXCUSE ME, BUT I'M A 1K!"
LOL. Just had a similar situation in PHL. The boarding announcement was made for GS, First, 1K, etc and the line on the red carpet started to form as they did not open it for some reason. My wife and I (both 1Ks) were about 6 people back when some moron came pushing (really pushing) his way thru saying "I am a 1K, I am a 1K" over and over. The guy in front of us stepped in front of him and said very loudly "..so is everyone else standing here sport..get to the back of the line".
The whole line broke out in laughter at the fool.
