Let’s be honest: Nobody is happier about this news than the enormous dog who forced a US Airways flight to make an emergency landing earlier this year when he crapped in the aisle twice.
According to the New York Post, a woman and her 70-pound pig were removed from a US Airways flight that was scheduled to fly from Hartford to Washington, D.C., Wednesday after the pig became “disruptive,” which ended up being the politically correct way of saying they were kicked off the plane after the pig dropped a deuce in the aisle.

One passenger said he thought the pig was a duffel bag at first, but once she set it down in the aisle, he knew he was sorely mistaken.
“I was terrified,” Jonathan Skolnik said. “I was thinking, ‘I’m going to be on the plane with a pig.'”
Rob Phelps was also on the plane and said the pig named Hobie squealed “three times louder than a child” and his owner talked to him “as if he were human.”
Hobie was apparently an “emotional support” animal for his owner, and that’s why he was initially allowed to board the plane with her. But after she repeatedly called him a “jerk” for crapping in the aisle, we’re unsure if Hobie will need his own emotional support animal the next time he decides to fly.
