Man Sues Airline for Sitting Him 'Next to Obese Man'

I'm personally interested in this issue. I too have been forced into painful positions during long flights because the passenger next to me was too large to fit within his allotted width.

I'll be curious to see if there's ANY amount of discomfort or undersized-seating that will trigger a court to rule in favor of a passenger.

Maybe I should sue the airlines for making me sit in seats that are inches shorter than either my shoulder frame or femur length. If I get an aisle seat and the stewardess really winds up with the drink cart, I can probably get some convincing bruises.
