PHOENIX -- A man hoping to avoid the new TSA pat-down procedure at Sky Harbor airport tried something a little a different as he entered the airport security line last week. Perhaps inspired by the Arizona woman who recently stripped down to her bra and panties at a Los Angeles airport, this frequent flyer entered the security line wearing only a Speedo.
Mike Mueller has an artificial hip, which sets off multiple TSA alarms each time he goes through airport metal detectors. In an effort to speed things up, Mueller thought wearing only a Speedo might make the TSA Agent's job a little easier. His daughter documented the events in the video below.
He obviously was packing no contaband. They were simply butts because they could be. The searches are intolerable. I hope flyers do not give up and fight this tooth and nail. I have a titanium plate in my neck which sends me to enhanced screening in public buildings(I don't fly anymore). It gets old.
