Charlotte Douglas International Airport is so crowded these days that it is very easy to bump into folks. But blocking folks… especially when you’ve had too much to drink…is never going to end well.
Man Reacts Strongly To Drunk Passenger At American Airlines Boarding Gate At Charlotte Airport…
Feel free to review the videos below, which contain strong language (F bombs) and are not safe for work. From what I can gather, the man in the pink shirt was inebriated and mouthing off with another passenger at a boarding gate for an American Airlines flight. The man in pink pushed the bigger man away, who responded by placing him in a headlock and quickly bringing him to the floor.
An American Airlines employee tried to pull them apart and eventually succeeded. Mr. Pink Shirt angrily demands to press charges–with slurred speech–against the man who took him down. But his friend, or perhaps just a Good Samaritan in the gate area, tries to calm him down and advises him that a lawsuit is not necessary and to just let the guy go.
As an aside, two wrongs don’t make a right and while Mr. Pink Shirt may have been put in his place, it doesn’t mean he’s wrong about the assault.
Another AA employee approaches him, who he curses about, and the second video ends as he is still agitated.
I just flew through CLT Airport earlier this month and I know it’s depressing…so depressing the airport now allows you to carry alcohol through the terminal.
But perhaps this incident reveals (once again) that drinking is not a great way to pass the time, even in a third-world airport like Charlotte.
Arrests and lawsuits are not always the solution to our problems…I don’t condone violence, but perhaps that body slam is all Mr. Pink Shirt needed to wake him up. Then again, it seems he remained quite belligerent.
Mr. Pink Shirt should be Kamala Harris’ running mate. Great security measure. Nobody would dare harm here because they could mean a President Pink Shirt.

We might not get Mr Pink Shirt but still a chance we get Mr Pink Sock, Mayor Buttplug. And we all know his pink sock has come out a few times and had to be quickly put back in.
As for Charlotte being a 3rd world airport, granted it’s busy but it’s much nicer than those sh#tholes like India where the Gandhi’s bathe in the rivers where they sh#t. Right before they go to the call centers to try and scam our credit card numbers before their friends in Pakistan do the same. The next person from those countries that contributes to the world will be the first.
Show me any beer from India as good as a Hop Drop & Roll from NoDa Brewing in Charlotte.
Matthew, I understand you like to give a long leash to people in the comments section to facilitate a variety of viewpoints, but surely you will delete this post containing a vulgar and homophobic slur.
Imagine politics being your whole identity. Going so far as to clothe yourself in it; watching the same yellow journalism as your buddies so you can download the catch-phrases to trade at your local watering hole; slapping political stickers on your pickup so you match everyone else that’s just like you…
What a vapid existence
Kingfisher…hands down. I lived in India for 3 years. Have you ever been outside of the USA
Kingfisher is garbage on the level of Budweiser. The Indian asshats that own it tried brewing it in Ukiah CA when they bought Mendocino Brewing Co years ago. Naturally they ruined the brand which had a storied history because they didn’t understand the US craft beer market. And the beer sucked.
@Derek… why bring politics into it? WHY?! You aren’t one of “those” kinds of people are you?
Derek is the uncle at Thanksgiving dinner.
I have been to CLT once and it felt like I was at the State Fair. I have never seen so many people squeezed in one place. We had a tight connection and even if we wanted we could not run to our gate. What a disgrace.
With the to-go cocktails they should rope off a fight ring for amateur drunks. It’s a slippery slope.
If person A assualts person B, by pushing, and then person B responds with an equal level of physical force, controlled headlock to the ground, that is not assault, that’s self defense….law achool 101.
Good luck making a self-defense argument here.
Third world airport? Really? Klint, You’re a tool.
I actually fly through it and calling it “third world” is perhaps giving it too much credit…
I agree. CLT blows and it’s one of many, many reasons I stopped flying AA.
he was right–two wrongs definitely do not make a right—–
and here it comes
but two wrights made an airplane–and the consumption of alcohol was started.
Americans are such low class trash.
The way they behave, the way they dress.
Just look at all these disgustingly fat people wearing baseball caps, shorts and running shoes.
Americans all walk around like they just got out of the gym all the while looking like they have never set foot in one.
Every, and I repeat EVERY race has individuals that are truly an embarrassment to their own race. If you disagree with that statement the you are a dreamer who has yet to fall asleep….I recommend you place your head back in the sand that which has separated you from reality
Alcohol should be banned at airports and on flights. If you cannot fly with out alcohol in your blood stream. You need to stay home. God is Great, Beer is good, and people are crazy…..as the song says.
Don’t fuck it up for the rest of us. If you get intoxicated and act like a douche you should be banned from the sky for a year. Let the rest of us have our peace.
Another Trump/Vance supporting used car salesman with anger management issues. TSA should automatically put these clowns on the Do Not Fly List.
How do you know who he supports? Maybe he’s a Dem.
AA’s 2nd largest hub – construction always at this so-called “World Class Airport” where I’ve worked for 15 yrs.
