Just before I came on my blog this morning I was reading my emails and after that a page from yahoo popped up that showed a headline about an airline flight diversion involving a soccer team.  Well, of course I had to click on the story and see what was up.   From what I understand an American Airlines flight was on its way to Los Angelas from Boston when one of the passengers just totally flipped out.  He started crying and talking gibberish, then went into the restroom and stripped naked.

The coach of a soccer team that was on the flight went up the the man when he left the restroom and told him to put his clothes back on.  The naked man complied, but upon leaving the restroom he bolted to the emergency exit door and tried to open it!  Now keep in mind the plane was in flight; opening the emergency exit door while the plane is flying is NOT a good thing to do!  The man was then subdued by several members of the soccer team and then flight attendants tied him to one of the airline seats to keep him contained until the plane landed.  The plane was diverted to land in Oklahoma to remove the man, who was taken into custody by the police and taken to a psychiatric facility.

Now that’s one adventure I’m glad I missed!

 An American Airlines flight from Boston to Los Angeles was diverted to Oklahoma City on Friday after a passenger stripped nude and later tried to open an emergency exit door before being subdued by members of a professional soccer team and others, the FBI said.
