But here's the highlight, which is told in the article in a very pro-bronco tone as opposed to neutral journalism.
Davis says he is "in shock over the traumatizing events." He says he was traveling with his wife, his two sons and his daughter.
"During the beverage service, my son politely requested a cup of ice. The flight attendant either didn't hear or ignored his request and continued past our row. I calmly reached behind me and lightly tapped his arm to get his attention to again ask for a cup of ice for my son," Davis wrote in the social media post.
Davis says right after he tapped the flight attendant on the arm, the man shouted "Don't hit me" and moved to another part of the plane. Davis says the flight attendant was "incredibly rude and blatantly wrong in his accusations of me hitting him" and he didn't interact with the attendant for the rest of the flight.
Before passengers were allowed off the plane Davis says the captain asked everyone to remain seated and that's when the law enforcement officers came on the plane, handcuffed Davis and escorted him off the plane without providing a reason why.
The last sentence here is the key one. Davis knew that he had committed air terrorism, so he knew that truth, justice, and the American Way was waiting at the gate for him. [Reply]

I'll still refer to the guy going forward as "Former Airline Terrorist Terrell Davis" if people don't mind.
As long as you continue to refer to Von Miller as a murderer. [Reply]

I am partial to KC Defensive line Terrorist Terrell Davis. [Reply]
Sad case of miscommunication. TD was just giving the flight attendant a mile high salute. The flight attendant got overly excited when he was touched & then saw that TD’s jersey was covered in Vaseline. It happens. [Reply]

And so does the other side.
The person filing the complaint says the employee is literally Hitler and the employee says they had to fight the customer off with tasers and mace. Both sides exaggerate to highlight not that they were justified but super justified.
Odds are pretty good both sides were a bit douchey in this exchange...
Eyewitness accounts appear to corroborate his story, FWIW. [Reply]

What about someone who didn't drink on a prior flight, had a connection they had to run to catch and are a stressed mess for a two hour flight?

But he obviously blackmailed the shit out of the entire NFL HOF Committee. I don't know how else he could have gotten in with such a short paltry resume [Reply]
