Green Day Member Kicked Off Plane For Pants Being Too Low

A flight attendant apparently asked Billie Joe Armstrong, the leader singer of the band Green Day, to pull up his pants.

That's right a woman asked a grown man to adjust his clothing.

When Armstrong reminded the flight attendant that she probably had more important things to worry about he was kicked off the flight.

Another example of people given a small amount of athority and going way over the top with it- looking at you TSA!

Cindy Qiu, an associate producer at Bay area television station ABC7/KGO-TV, was on the flight and described the incident on her company's website.

She said that Armstrong, when he was initially approached by a flight attendant and told to hike up his pants, said "Don't you have better things to do than worry about that?"

He then tried to take his seat but was asked to leave the plane, Qiu said on the ABC7 website.

The situation appears to have been soon resolved.

"As soon as we became aware of what had happened, we reached out to apologize for this customer's experience," Hawkins said. "He elected to take the next flight."
