Mine, too, and you can bet Continental Airlines will thoroughly investigate with this lawsuit pending. If a hoax, these 2 gay guys will be in a heap of trouble.
Oooooh! You’re reeeally a bad boy! You’re my kinda guy!
Of course, we don't know for a fact that someone did this, because gay people have been known to stage fake outrageous stunts, including cutting themselves and staging attacks. But this would be hard to stage.
Of course, it could have been some random baggage handler in Costa Rica -- and have nothing to do with the particular airline.
And still, this is just hilarious. How mentally unbalanced must a gay couple be that they have to be physically assisted from an airport at the sight of a dildo:
"Plaintiffs were experiencing such a high degree of shock and embarrassment that they felt compelled to call two friends to come to the airport to assist them. "Fortunately, the friends arrived and were able to assist plaintiffs out of the airport and to their home, but by that time the damage had already been done, and plaintiffs had suffered severe emotional trauma."
Perhaps it was had foul smelling residue already on it from its last usage.
I don’t think the problem is that they “touched” the property. I had my luggage searched on my most recent trip back into the U.S. and there was a note inside saying that my luggage was searched in a more in depth way. The problem is they took something OUT and affixed it to the outside of the luggage. That was their faux pas. Dumb.
Agreed- so long as this wasn’t a hoax. Something odd about this story.
Oh the horror! Call 911! Where are the pictures of traumatized being carried out, their emotions broken, in the arms of friends? The horror!
Exactly.

Are there no webcam surveillance setups to determine which are hoax claims and which are true TSA abuse? They better look to it...
If they were so "traumatically embarrassed" by the exposure of their sex toy at an airport, "how they gonna feel" when it is laying there naked in a court room on the evidence table?
How are they gonna feel seated next to the judge testifying about it under oath?
Or are they seeking a shakedown payoff to walk away without going to court?
The article blames the prank on baggage handlers, but what about the TSA? On three occasions, I have opened my bag to find a note from the TSA saying that the bag had been opened and inspected.
I’m grossed out because I don’t want a baggage with a sodomite’s used sex toy taped to the exterior rubbing up against my luggage on the baggage cart/luggage carousel.
When I flew back from NYC last year, there was a note in my luggage that TSA had opened it. Nothing to see except my dirty laundry, toiletries, and a hair dryer. Don't know what provoked the inspection.
A dildo is at least dynamite shaped and may have a metal (or electronic) rod inside it.

I did a little digging, and already I found that this happened a long time ago -- this report is about the lawsuit.
Found a blog that had a picture of the bag (which doesn't prove anything, unless they have a picture of the bag coming out of the baggage claim area).
At the blog, the guy points out that the airline does all the "right" things to try to pay off the gay mafia:
In response to demand letters, the leadership of the airline basically "flipped" the bird to these innocent victims and victimized them yet again - even though United/Continental Airlines claims to be LGBT friendly through their involvement with the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (at all times relevant to this story, the couple have themselves been members of the NGLCC).
The blogger claims the people aren't "crackpots":
The couple is represented by the law firm of Faubus & Scarborough LLP based in Houston, Texas. For full disclosure, I know this couple well - they are among my closest friends - and they are not crack pots.
Yes, but in my opinion, it would be very strange TSA agents who would dare to or even care to engage in this sort of pranking on the gay guys. Something not right with this story.
“Christopher and Martin”
Wonder why they would even need one of those! They’ve already got TWO (I’d guess)!
Now if it was Christine and Martina, maybe!
No, it doesn’t, I agree. And I would wager they are looking for a pre-litigation settlement, to “spare” Continental the bad press. But if they get caught as hoaxers, they will be in for a heap of trouble. We shall see...
What happened to "Gay Pride"?
