"Man with ‘world’s biggest penis’ stopped at SFO security"

See: http://blog.sfgate.com/stew/2012/07/17/man-with-worlds-biggest-penis-stopped-at-sfo-security/

A New York man known for his unusually large penis was patted down by airport security at San Francisco International last week after they questioned him about the bulge in his pants, he said.

Jonah Falcon, 41, who has been featured in several documentaries about the world’s biggest penises, was returning from a trip in San Francisco on July 9 when he was stopped at security by TSA agents who spotted something out of the ordinary hanging to the left in his pants, he said.

“They wanted to know if I had something in my pockets, and when I said no, they asked if I had some sort of growth,” he said.

When he replied that it was just his penis, they “checked the area around it” but didn’t frisk him too severely, he said. They also wiped his hands to check for explosive powder.

Falcon said the delay was mostly amusing to him and only delayed him for about 5 minutes. He said it was the first time his penis had caused a security concern.

“I”ve gone through the (airport scanner) before, and I wasn’t worried,” he said. “What was the worst that was going to happen — I was going to have to whip it out for them? I’m used to that. Sometimes when people ask me about it, if I’m feeling up to it, I’ll just show them.”

from what i know this was done without the security knowing- just that a "rock group" was boarding a flight...

her reaction is perfect!



AND that Shearer, Mckeen and Guest didn't crack up! I couldn't have done it... maybe they didn't know, except Shearer, either.

would be complete different? I only mention this because when we get such threads about women, there's always those who give the "I would be just as outraged if it happened to a man" response when accused of a double standard, but when there IS such a thread, you almost never hear from them.

He was found not guilty by a court of law.

Too bad that couldn't be somehow amalgamated with this incident. It would have been a much better story.
