From the article:

“The post didn’t identify the traveler who was transporting the weapon or whether any arrests were made.”

Just a guess but if it had been Florida Man I suspect it woulda been BBQ chicken. 😏

Was it a Cluck 19? The subcompact appears to be quite popular.

The plot chickens as we barrel our way closer to Thanksgiving.
For us, it’s a time to be thankful that our officers are
always working around the cluck to keep you safe. Take for
instance this “hen you believe it?” find at Fort Lauderdale
-Hollywood International Airport. We hate to beak it to you
here, but stuffing a firearm in your holiday bird for travel
is just a baste of time. This idea wasn’t even half-baked; it
was raw, greasy, and obviously unsupervised. The only roast
happening here is this poor packing choice!
