We flew from Chicago to Las Vegas with some people that wanted to get the party started early. I think they actually ran out of alcohol to serve to the rowdy group at the back of the plane. I wasn't sure at times whether I was flying or next door to a huge party (that we weren't invited to). There were several "announcements" to the plane directed to this one group. If they had that much fun on the flight, I wonder what happened all weekend? It's probably best that the details stay in Vegas. I never saw Soul Plane the movie - but I imagine it was a lot like our flight. If only Snoop would have been our pilot . . .

Snoop is my pilot of choice

You neglected to mention that you were totally jealous that you weren't in the back of the airplane enjoying the festivities -not the drinking so much but just the racuous laughter. You also neglected to mention that at the end of the flight the girl who was sitting with us said, "Oh I got so lucky sitting next to you guys." That's right not everyone was interested in getting drunk on the plane.
I just kept wondering what in the world was so exciting back there. I was perfectly happy watching our Freaks & Geeks on the DVD player under normal circumstances - it just felt like there must be something we were missing out on. OK so I was jealous of the fun.
Just be glad they didn't try to induct you into the Mile High Club. Also, I have a feeling that if Snoop were there, he'd have passed out pass a long cards galore. We all know he had a change of heart.
Wasn't this plane ride also in the middle of the night..making it better than previously thought. A red eye flight with a noisy group of drunk people. Holy crap sign me up!
You're so right, Lindy -- pass along cards and Books of Mormon in every seat pocket. It'd be like a flying Marriott.
Ross, didn't you wander to the back of the plane to check things out under the guise of going to the bathroom? That's what I would have done. It's just like on the school bus...all the fun happens in the back where the driver can't see what you’re up to. Of course, we didn't have flight attendants on the school bus, but if I know those Southwest Airlines flight attendants they were probably partying too. I have some free drink coupons you could take on your next flight. Even if you don’t drink, maybe you could buy a round for everyone else and get in with the cool group.
Kris - I found your blog through Hilary and Cyd's blog and thought I would say hello. I know it's been like 13 years or something crazy like that but hopefully you're doing well. I've enjoyed reading your posts. Do you have a facebook account?
i love that story . . . i've never seen soul plane, but when i have classroom parties for my kids, i feel like its "soul class" (without the alcohol of course, because we are in school and because they're 13- but mostly due to the fact that they are in school)
