I have no idea what you're talking about.

Had a bratwurst sandwich and a few beers waiting for a flight last month. A locally baked cookie helped that wait go by very quickly

You could grab a drink with Paul Thompson. I think he works there and he's a beer connoisseur.

Going outside means going back through security

Staying in the terminal means looking at planes

You dun goofed

The beer selection in the parking lot sucks.

Planes are just less fun versions of cars.

Just buy some and bring it with you!

Is the flight in five hours the next flight to your destination? Do you have a checked bag?

If the answer to both is no, go to a service counter and asked to be put on the next flight. 60% of the time it works every time.

Hah, was stuck at Denver airport this past Wednesday and Friday. Different terminal though.

Stuck paying for expensive beer? No thanks. I'd walk around everywhere in that air port people watching. Flirt randomly with unattached travelers because you'll never ever see them again anyhow. Or do just about anything other than sit for 12 hours.

Checked bag. On standby for next flight. 7 people deep on list.

Next flight after that is now in 5.5 hours.

Married. Would feel guilty flirting. I do have my camera. But TSA scares me.

So... I've walked the airport. Now I'm charging my phone an fucking about online.

I see what you did there.

Denver is a weird airport. Can you see how many times you can ride the subway?

Oof

There are much, much worse airports to be stuck in than Denver however.

William Byrd > Gamecat235 05/05/2014 at 13:33

Definitely worse places to be stranded. Make it so!

Gamecat235 > For Sweden 05/05/2014 at 13:33

Yes. I have found beer. And am about to go explore the other terminals. LOL

I suppose that would indeed make the flirting thing not a good idea. Shooting a video like those guys did that went viral a couple years ago would probably be difficult in a packed airport. You could ban random people (not me) from Oppo and watch them freak out about kinja problems.

I am envious. I wish I was flying, killing hours or drinking beer. But mostly the last one.

I'm 19 and have never had alcohol. I wonder what it tastes like.

Kind of smokey with a slight malt aftertaste. Comes on strong at first, but finishes smooth.

I'm sure it's a different description as the beverage changes.
