Tip #1. If another Jordan Neely sits next to you, get off the bus.
Took one back in the 80s from Boston to Omaha before cell phones. Somewhere in Ohio, in the middle of nowhere, the driver stops and comes to the back to tell us that he knew what marijuana smelled like and if he smelled it again, he was radioing the cops. It stopped.
Forty years ago I was taking my one year old boy from Arkansas to Missouri on a greyhound bus to visit my sister. A couple teenagers started acting up and cussing. The driver stopped the bus and stood up. “One more word out of you two and you’re off this bus” he said. That solved the problem. I always appreciated that man and the way he spoke to those guys was like something from a movie.
Which is quite possible in a bus but a bit more of an issue if you are on a plane.
