Reply #171: Well, frankly, that's bullshit.

I'm obese. Not so big I don't fit in-between the arm rests on an airplane, but I get it. It sucks sitting next to me.

But if we have airlines that are going to charge someone that is just genetically big in the shoulders (he is very lean and muscular at 185), then there are problems. 32" pants are loose on him and will be even more loose now that wrestling is firing up. It sucks to hear the "then eat less" arguments on here but, again, I get it. But what, he's supposed to lift fewer weights? Do fewer pushups and pull ups? Change his DNA (he gets the typical eastern european barrel chest from me and some really broad shoulders from mom's side of the family)? At some point, it comes back to the airlines being screwed up.
