I'm sure who ever reported the story still knows it as the Crown Room...D.C. lives in its own world...
I just love that someone actually has to deal with the fall out of talking too loudly on their phone while in the lounge!

I actually made money off a somebody speaking way too loudly on his cell phone at the FLL SkyClub.
During the conversion the Gentleman dropped enough hints that I was able to short the stock and made money when the stock fell due to the issue the Gentleman was discussing on his phone.
So, while annoying it cane be profitable.

That's head bangers sir! Now we've become Doctors, Lawyers, CEO, Engineers, etc. The lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Iron Maiden is an airline pilot. Buckle up!

As a former white-collar-criminal defense lawyer practicing in the States, you should probably NOT tell anyone about this success you had...EVER.
The U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission may take a different view of the profits from your actions.
Just sayin'

Careful. Trading on nonpublic info, regardless of how received can get you in trouble. Exec who talks about such things in public without proper authorization should be fired.
