The Sound and the Fury: Expedia Study of In-Flight Etiquette Finds ‘Rear Seat Kickers’ Have Passed ‘Inattentive Parents’ as America’s Least-Favorite Airplane Passenger
Expedia.com released on Dec. 9 the results of the second annual Airplane Etiquette Study, which asked 1,000 Americans to rank the most annoying on-board behaviors of fellow passengers.

This year, “Rear Seat Kickers” have displaced the parents, pushing them to second place, ahead of such etiquette violators as the “Aromatic Passenger,” the “Audio Insensitive,” the “Boozer,” and “Chatty Cathy.” See the full release to learn what other types of bad behavior made the list.

San Francisco Giants’ Madison Bumgarner Named 2014 Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year
San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner is Sports Illustrated’s 2014 Sportsman of the Year.

Bumgarner, 25, becomes part of a group that includes among others Muhammad Ali, Joe Montana, LeBron James, Jack Nicklaus, Peyton Manning, and Billie Jean King to be honored. See the full release to learn more.
