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.
