Scotty McKnight (Jets WR) On June 16th in JFK FL-- he was waiting on his flight to LAX to go see his new GF. Funny thing was he was talking so loudly about TMZ taking pictures of them-- I should of snapped some and sold them LOL.

June 30th lax-hnl-ogg will be my first papaya appearance. I feel sorry for the person sitting next to me. Last time I had an Iron Man helmet on when I did something similar last year from KOA-LAX. I remember getting hooked up on the extra baggage and oversize by the terminal agent. I got 6 oversized bags checked in for free. Small terminal but the flyers in the front cabin and the crew had a blast with it. Cracked jokes for an hour during flight.
The costume is easy to slip on and off so if I need to it should be no trouble getting it off at TSA request.

Here is a youtube of the iron man helmet. I had to take the armor costume off for security before boarding. Got the helmet from Costco.

You Tube says this is a PVT video and that I need a log in for it...

Sorry. It was a short time deal. If you're in lax tomorrow, try to look for a papaya. I'm trying to convince my travel assistant to dress up like a coconut.

Pete Townsend?
I'm sitting in the LAX AC, someone here has a bluetooth discoverable laptop named PTOWNSEND. Ok, I know that could be anyone, I'm just bored.

His name is Pete Townshend (different spelling). Also in the LAX AC and I know what he looks like and don't see him after a quick scan.

Forgot to post this awhile back, but sat behind PitBull in business class on a 3/30 flight from MIA to SDQ. He then was the opening act for the Shakira concert I attended that night.
