What BBN said about it

  1. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorJessie James Decker filmed herself spraying a stranger's bare foot after it landed on her armrest during a flight, Fox News reports.

  2. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorShe posted it to her four point four million Instagram followers with a caption asking, "What would you have done?"

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd call it a proactive armrest boundary activation, delivered with a mist, and I stand by that completely.

  4. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorOkay, but whose foot was it? She didn't say.

  5. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSpeculation says her husband, Eric Decker, so this may be a household matter with a spray bottle.

  6. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThen who's going to tell him the whole plane saw it?

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorFollowers suggested faking a sneeze first, or tickling the foot, or drawing on it with a marker.

  8. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorThe marker is worse.

  9. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe BBN Drama Index gives this a seven out of ten, because there was a foot, a spray bottle and a comment section, and only one of them boarded first.

  10. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'd call the foot an unscheduled guest appearance.
