Some game, huh?

And our friends in Pennsylvania aren’t just celebrating the win of their beloved Steelers today – they’re also celebrating the appearance of another Keystone State denizen: Punxsutawney Phil. Yes, today is Groundhog’s Day.

Unfortunately, the groundhog saw his shadow – which means another 6 more weeks of winter – which means more chances for people to get…trapped on the tarmac.

Yes, it happened again (and you can read all about here on our sister-blog, Standard Upright Position). Read it to see how AirTran totally botched this (though the airline partially redeemed itself with a nice make-up gift).

It would have been so much nicer, though, if the incident hadn’t happened in the first place. Which of course begs the question: Congress, have you completely given up on your “passenger bill of rights” legislation?
