Not exactly. He just physically couldn't fit into the elevator.

Sort of like when three XXL sized women in my office put in an order for XXL sized chairs. They were drooping off the sides of the normal chairs. I would think that should be a wake up call.

How many people imagined a bunch of uh ... non-caucasion, non-asian women in that elevator? I did. Had to go back to the OP to see if he mentioned race or if I just assumed it. Interesting.

I was at a upscale hotel going up to my floor. The elevator opened and four tubs of fat waddled onto the elevator. Mom, Dad & their precious little girl and darling son that weighed more than mom or dad. I bet that daughter was 350 lbs, and she was not 10 feet tall! The overload buzzer started squealing. I got off on a floor I did not want to be on. I walked up three flights of stairs. I like to eat and my 6-pack is a keg now, but I looked skinny next to that family.

All white except one thinner Black women. They all had name tags like they were part of some corporate get together. Southern drawls maybe they were at a fried chicken eaters convention.

Sadly, all of our office chairs are like that. There are 6 inches between me and the nearest armrest, on either side. The "big" chairs are big enough for my wife and I to hang out on.

Part of a beauty pageant at the hotel no doubt.

Funny. When I was flying out of New York, we couldn't figure out why we were having problems in D.C. with seatbelt extensions. It was so bad that the inbound aircraft would gather up any extensions on board and toss them out the copilot's window to the ground crew who hustled them over to an outbound aircraft.

Got to the hotel that night and saw so much white linen it was blinding. Turned out there was a gospel music convention in D.C. and the hefties had been 'borrowing' the extensions so they didn't have to ask for one on their next flight.

Life is funnier than fiction.
