Lobos football player thrown off plane, cited for trespassing

Pants on the ground, pants on the ground, getting kicked off a plane with your pants on the ground.

Okay, so no one was forcefully kicked off a plane, but police did arrest a University of New Mexico Lobos football player for saggy pants at the San Francisco International Airport.

According to reports, 20-year-old Deshon Marman was boarding a flight Wednesday back to Albuquerque, N.M., when a U.S. Airways employee noticed his “style” let little to the imagination.

Sgt. Michael Rodriguez says the US Airways employee noted his pants were “below his buttocks, but above the knees, and his boxer shorts were showing.”

No word on the status of his hat at the time. It may or may not have been “turned sideways.”

Rodriguez told the San Francisco Chronicle that the employee asked Marman to pull up his pants, but he refused. She then asked him to leave the plane. And after 15 minutes of back-and-forth he did exit the plane and was cited with trespassing.

Marman’s mother, Donna Doyle, said that her son was returning from a friend’s funeral and he was still in an emotionally raw state.

Meanwhile, US Airways spokeswoman, Valerie Wunder, reminds folks that the airline’s dress code forbids lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground.
