Of course, how will one prove that they are disabled and can access the new, bigger, plusher comfy chairs( or simply the plain old extra seat)?

Will a Doctor's note suffice?

Will the standards for handicapped here be as lax as they must be for all those out there who have a handicapped sign hanging from there rear view mirror?

Where you going to draw the line?

I might have Restless Leg Syndrome(yeah, that'll be my disability) and need to have my legs up and stretched out


Morbidly obese?
I think the spirit of this law, which pertains to a few, has been corrupted by the many fat people who have earned their way to their present status

I'm 200 pounds and should be 160 pounds, do I qualify?



btw your Race 3 pick at the Mountain sucked
