    on the way back all 6 of our bags got flagged for excess baggage and they wanted like $35 a bag, so i started shuffling stuff around, as the line creeped out of the corral the guy finally just said 'go'.

    the one out of every ten times they actually call me on it, it works every time.

    On my trip to SLC I tipped the porters big and they let my one bag slide. It had a half case of wine in it

    Hehe, mine weighed in at 49.8lbs at home. Thought I'd be over since those FB's are freakin' heavy. That AJ bag kicked arse though.

    No baggage issues for me. Don't know what they weighed, but I had two full sets of gear in a ski bag, a boot bag and a suitcase and no one blinked an eye. Used the alpines three days and the teles three. Didn't really bother being envious of anything around me (excepting basom's steezy hat).

    Sick and ashamed and happy (and only own the two pairs so no need to make decisions),

    Got popped by American for $25 on the way out, bag weighed in at 70 lbs. I tried to explain that I had no boot bag but the cranky bitch (well it was 5:45 AM) would have none of that. First time it's ever happened though so I figure I'm up in the grand scheme of things.

    Normally I just tip the skycap well and its no problemo, but AMR cut out their skycaps in K-Town (along with half of their flights).
    I should probably change my username to IReallyDon'tTeleMuchAnymoreDave.

    probably due to those steezy white goalie-gloves you grabbed...
