Do you take stuff from United Club? or seen others do that?

I was in an early morning flight and waiting in the United Club for my flight. I saw this guy, around 30, went back and forth to the self-serve freezer and grabbed 12 cans (12oz) of apple juice, 6 cans (8oz) of tomato juice and 6 cans (6oz) of pineapple juice, and stuffed in his backpack. Apparantly he noticed I was watching and he left. At least that's what I thought, because on my way out for my flight, I saw him chatting with the front desk and he went back to the freezer for more after I had left the Club. (How do I know? for my own curiority, I returned to the club and caught him again)

For my Super Bowl party I plan to get my cheese and cracker plate from the United Club

In all seriousness, the only thing I've taken out of the club is a magazine or newspaper if I'm still reading it. Other than that, there's not a whole lot I'd want...

Ditto Doug - paper or mag if its in progress...

You can take up to 12 cans of apple juice, but they expire in 12 minutes

Sucks for him if they did a gate check of liquids.

I cannot think of anything in the UC that I would ever want.

The occasional banana to eat on my way to the gate. Pretty tacky behavior by this guy.

If they have the packaged cookies or crackers out I might grab one or two to nibble on later in the day. Maybe a newspaper to read later.

He works for American, and was stocking the Admirals Club.

Disgusting behavior. I can't believe someone would take that much out of there.
