LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES SEPTEMBER 1, 2019- EIGHT YEARS AGO GREEN DAY’S BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG WAS THROWN OFF A SOUTHWEST AIRLINES FLIGHT BECAUSE HE WAS “WEARING HIS PANTS TOO LOW.”

THE WORLD FOUND OUT ABOUT THE INCIDENT WHEN ARMSTRONG TWEETED:

“Just got kicked off a Southwest flight because my pants sagged too low! What the f-? No joke!”

A FLIGHT ATTENDANT HAD APPROACHED BILLY JOE AND TOLD HIM, “PULL YOUR PANTS UP.”

ARMSTRONG RESPONDED TO THE ATTENDANT:

“Don’t you have better things to do than worry about that?”

THEN THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT SAID

“Pull your pants up or you’re getting off the plane.”

BILLY JOE WAS THEN REMOVED FROM THE OAKLAND TO BURBANK FLIGHT.

A SOUTHWEST SPOKESPERSON LATER APOLOGIZED TO ARMSTRONG AND ACCORDING TO AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT

“We followed up … and understand from the customer the situation was resolved to his satisfaction.”
