At the end of my business trip, I was getting on my flight from Ft. Lauderdale to Chicago and the plane was taking a lot longer than usual to fill. I realized that there were people gawking at someone in front of me, none other than Dennis Rodman.
I ended up sitting 2 rows behind him but I should have sat further away; people several rows around him, in all directions, were determined to have a conversation with him, over the people in other rows.
Kind of odd, someone like him, flying Southwest, but just because someone is well known or has/had money does not meant that they fly first class everywhere. Maybe he puts himself into the public on purpose, as he was loving all of the attention that he was getting.
