- When we were flying back from Memphis last month we had a woman on a flight that we were SURE was going to cause a fight…between swearing at the flight crew and having her dog go nuts… unfortunately we didn’t get a show. But 44-year-old Matthew Flaherty was on a flight last year from London to Iceland. And he was drinking STRAIGHT GIN out of the bottle and got extremely drunk.

Then . . . he took his cell phone apart and started EATING THE PIECES. He also left the battery on his seat and it started SMOKING. A flight attendant dunked it in water to get it to stop. The pilots decided to divert the flight to an airport in Scotland, where Matthew was escorted off the plane and arrested.
- A cop in Washington state pulled over a trucker for speeding the other day. And he had a full MUSIC STUDIO built into the front seat of his truck.
