A man has a surprise performance at the Southwest gate of Louis Armstrong International Airport.
Last Sunday, at Louis Armstrong International Airport in New Orleans, a Southwest gate agent apparently (jokingly) suggested there would be a cost for asking such questions—customers would first have to sing a song.
The price of admission proved to be no problem for one Southwest passenger who grabbed the gate desk PA microphone and quickly broke into an impromptu routine. Singing and dancing to “No Diggity” by Blackstreet, the customer elicited the cheers of fellow passengers as well as the Southwest gate agents. He even managed to get others to sing along to the chorus, “I like the way you work it.”
The performance was captured on Facebook by a user identified as Mike Vadala.
“So our gate at Nola Southwest required everyone who asked a question to sing,” wrote Vadala. “This guy went off.”
The guy in the video sounds like he’s just wrapping “Wonderwall” when the recording starts, quickly showing off “No Diggity” performance. By about 50 seconds in, he has the entire gate singing along!
The story emerged on The Times-Picayune website, Nola.com, who called it, “A delightful—and we think very New Orleans—reminder that waiting in the airport can actually sometimes be a very good experience.”
The traveler concludes his energetic performance with a mic drop.
The video was now viewed nearly 9 million!
The video received applause even on the comment section:
Debra Wilks commented, “I want to be at her gate next time! I always like a good floor show!! Laughing before you board a plane is good for the soul”, with a heart shape at the end of the video, she surely like what the man done!
Aidaliz Graulau Ortiz also commented, “He deserves a first class ticket!” Yeah, he sure he does!
Teej Mercer also commented about how good the airline is, “This is exactly why Southwest Airlines is my favorite airline. I love their brand culture and personality. I can’t imagine this going down at the Delta or American terminals. Watch the video for the full effect.”
Kelly Kellett also added, “Southwest always seems to have a great time with their passengers!”
