I'm talking full size, like this, I kid you not.

The GA gave him a green gate check tag as if it was commonplance (maybe it is in Texas ). As if he was checking a stroller or something.

They must have been AT LEAST four feet long, if not five plus.

So, I want to know: How in the WORLD did this guy get through security???

(And no, it was not this guy )
Everything is bigger in Texas. Once he left the ground it shrunk to 12 inches. No problem.
