“Flight Crude”

http://content.usatoday.com/communities/ondeadline/post/2010/08/rough-landing-jet-blue-attendant-blows-gasket-quits-exits-down-slide/1

Steven Slater, a JetBlue flight attendant hit by a passenger, quit by picking up the P.A. mic, cussing out the passenger, grabbing a beer, and deploying and sliding down the emergency slide. Slater now has a new job: the greatest American folk hero of the 21st Century.

Slater’s altercation with the passenger started during snack service, when the passenger tried to grab his nuts.

Slater was later arrested for deploying the slide, because everybody else on the plane didn’t get a turn.
