    Lets hear what you can come up with.

    Yeranen Yakov’s (he has a blog) top 10 reasons for this guy wearing a bag on the plane:

    10) “The in-flight movie was too non-Tzanu’a.”

    9) “The guy 2 rows back forgot to shower.”

    8) “I can concentrate on Tefilat Haderech better with this thing on.”

    7) “I have a contageous disease and I sneeze a lot.”

    6) “I feel safer sliding down the inflatable tube with it.”

    5) “I heard I’m a descendant of Ben Bag Bag.”

    4) “I’m anti-social, so my psychologist prescribed this as reverse psychology.”

    3) “I might touch the flight attendant as she gives me my meal.”

    2) “I’ve always dreamed of being an astronaut. This is as close to it as possible.”

    1) “Help! The highjackers put me in here! Can someone get me out of this thing?!”

    What’s wrong with the truth?

    We don’t know the truth so we may as well have some fun. Yes probably the reason is because he is a kohen. But it can also be because the guy sitting next to him has terrible BO.

    WIY:

    I really enjoy good humor, no, I thrive on it, it keeps me going.

    I would just humbly suggest that one not make light of the name of a Tanna found in the Mishna. It doesn’t measure to the Yeshiva World.

    I’m sure it was done inadvertently.

    If someone next to me on a plane had a black box on his head, I wouldn’t conjecture that it may be some sort of communication device. I would figure that it’s tefillin.

    I didn’t write the list its a copy and paste I happen to agree with you 100%. I will ask the mods if they can delete #5 even though it is kind of funny.

    Mods can you delete #5 from the OP? Thanks!

    I met this guy’s boss, and he told me that the real reason was that he had just been sacked.

    #956094

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong with #5, seeing as its not making fun of Ben Bag Bag in any way. However, I agree with DY’s questioning the appropriateness of making jokes about somebody keeping the Halacha (according to his Posek).

    Kanoi- is there a difference between “making jokes about somebody keeping the Halacha (according to his Posek)” and criticizing somebody about keeping the Halacha (according to his posek)? What about those who say Hallel on Yom Haatzmaus per their poseik or join the IDF as per their poseik? Which psakim may we poke fun at and criticize, and which are off limits?

    It was before Pesach. He did it so the children will ask.

    i thought it was cuz he was a Kohen…and they were flying over a graveyard or something

    #956101

    I thought it was because he was worried about shatnez in the seat.

    DH, it’s been established that he’s a kohen.

    #956103

    Oh, I thought we were still guessing. Why isn’t the enclosure of the plane enough?
