Narrative

A PAX SEATED IN SEAT XA; FIRST CLASS; WENT TO SLEEP IMMEDIATELY UPON ENTERING ACFT. I DIDN'T THINK IT THAT UNUSUAL; DUE TO THE EARLY DEP TIME. AFTER TKOF; THE PAX (MALE; ABOUT MID 30'S) AWOKE AND POLITELY ASKED FOR A TOMATO JUICE WITH 2 VODKA MINI'S. SHORTLY AFTER THAT; HE ASKED POLITELY AND CLRLY FOR 2 MORE VODKAS; WHICH I SERVED HIM AND HE CONSUMED. I'M ASSUMING HE'D HAD AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF ALCOHOL RIGHT BEFORE BOARDING IN ATL; BECAUSE HE INSTANTLY BECAME OBVIOUSLY INTOXICATED. THE FLT WAS SHORT ENOUGH AND I WAS BUSY ENOUGH SERVING THE MEAL TO OTHERS; THAT I WAS ABLE TO AVOID SERVING HIM ANY MORE VODKA. HE REMAINED RELATIVELY QUIET AND WELL BEHAVED. DURING TAXI IN; THE PLT BRIEFLY STOPPED AND THE PAX BEGAN POUNDING THE WALL WITH HIS FISTS; HOLLERING PROFANITY VERY LOUDLY. I UNSTRAPPED; WENT TO HIM AND SAID THAT THERE WERE LADIES; GENTLEMEN AND CHILDREN ON BOARD AND SAID 'SO; WATCH YOUR MOUTH.' HE OBEYED AND CAUSED NO FURTHER PROBS. HOWEVER; HE LEFT BEHIND A WRAPPED PRESENT AND HIS TICKET TO SAN JOSE; COSTA RICA; WHICH I CONVEYED TO OUR AGENT; WITH THE EXPLANATION AND INSTRUCTIONS THAT HE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON ANOTHER FLT. THAT CONCLUDED MY INVOLVEMENT.
