A college buddy sent this to me, not sure if it is true, but I don't have any reason not to believe him. If you have seen the movie, you can relate...
So, my brother lives in Vegas and he's on a flight back home to MI
this morning, with a layover in Dallas. He bought a DVD beforehand to
watch on his laptop, as he often does on long flights.
So he has his headphones on and he's watching when at some point he
falls asleep. A flight attendant wakes him up with a tap on the
shoulder and tells him he shouldn't be watching that on that plane
because it's inappropriate. So he's like, whatever, shuts the lid on
his laptop and falls back asleep.
He arrives in Dallas, gets off the plane, and is immediately stopped
by 4 police officers.
"Adam XXXXXX?"
"Yeah."
"Come with us."
They bring him into a room and explain that they got a call from a
flight attendant saying he was in possession of child pornography.
Well, turns out the movie he was watching was "Team America: World
Police" and if you're familiar with it at all, there is an obnoxiously
long, obnoxiously explicit puppet sex scene...every imaginable
position, including a golden shower and a dump on the face. In his
defense, although he is a fan of the South Park guys and had heard
that the movie is pretty hilarious & raunchy (also he bought the
Unrated Edition), he had no clue about this scene and since he had
fallen asleep, never even got to see it and therefore was incredibly
confused throughout the questioning. The only thing that saved him
was that he had kept the receipt and was able to prove that it was a
plain old commercially available non-porn DVD.
Long story short, he was questioned, yelled at, called stupid, they
threatened to throw him in prison and also ban him from future
American Airlines travel. This would have been a problem since he had
over $1000 in upcoming nonrefundable flights.
Luckily he was set free just barely in time to get on his connecting
flight, but not before Dallas PD figuratively did to him what the male
puppet literally did to the female puppet in the scene in question.
