FORT LAUDERDALE-HOLLYWOOD INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, FLA. (WSVN) - A man was forced off a flight at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport after causing a dispute over, what he called, his face mask.
It wasn’t a mask, however, it was a pair of red underwear. He said he wanted to send a message, and he did.
“You’re going to have to come off the airplane. We’re not going to let you travel,” the flight attendant said.
“Why?” said passenger Adam Jenne.
“You’re not in mask compliance,” the flight attendant responded.
Red underwear was hanging from Jenne’s face as he was walked off a plane, Wednesday.
The Cape Coral man said he was challenging the mask mandate.
“Illustrating that absurdity by wearing women’s underwear on my face sounds perfect,” he said.
Jenne was kicked off the flight from Fort Lauderdale to Washington D.C.
Wearing masks on public transportation like planes is federally mandated.
Shortly after Jenne left, other passengers started to speak up.
“Did he just get kicked off for wearing a mask?” one passenger said. “I’m out of here, forget it. I’m out of here.”
Jenne said several passengers ended up getting off the plane to support him.
“Thank you to them, because they saw something, an injustice, something that didn’t make sense, and they stood up,” Jenne said.

Was the thong washed before hand?
Was the underwear new or used????
“Civil rights protest.“
Means nothing if they didn’t burn the plane to show how serious they were!

The peasants are revolting.
Anyone remember the woman who sued Victoria’s Secret over a thong that injured her eye?
She was putting on the thong that had jewels attached to it, and as she stretched it or whatever, it snapped back and a jewel flew off and hit her in the eye.
Once they told him to leave, I bet he moved lickety-split...
Did he do something thong?
UA has no sense of humor or common sense.

CDC and OSHA never defined what a ‘mask’ requirement is.
Was it cloth?
Did it cover his mouth and nose?
If yes, then it was a CDC-compliant mask.
What would they have done if he wore a standard mask with “Let’s go Brandon” on it?
To each their own....
I have yet to hear of a woman using a pair of men’s underwear for a mask.
Yeah, I’ve said from the start of this whole ceebug thing that it would be necessary to define what a proper, useful mask is/was. Without that, just yelling “mask” is beyond stupid as well as counter-productive and sometimes even dangerous. Remember Florida guy, masked up, driving, passed out, smacked a tree, and died for it? Underpants on a plane? I’ve seen worse and less effective. I have pretty much every kind of respiratory protection known in the western world here at the shop so can shoot my mouth off and do object lessons at the same time———semper fi-—
the mask looked fine to me, it covered his nose and his mouth, he probably has a good case for damages if he can show a monetary loss because of this.
