Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton arrives at the team's mini-camp practice in Charlotte, N.C. on June 11. who is 6-foot-5, could certainly use that extra legroom on a transatlantic trip.quarterback probably realized that on Saturday while boarding a flight from Paris to the U.S.
So Newton apparently attempted to buy a seat with extra legroom from a fellow passenger — for $1,500 in cash.Would you give up a plane seat with extra legroom on a 10-hour flight for $1,500? Apparently some passengers feel that no amount of money can buy that comfort. As Newton learned.
I would have taken the swap in a heartbeat.
Yes, I would. And ask for an autograph.
Why not? He finally had power!
Cam should have asked a younger passenger. Most older folks have lots of $$$ in the bank & $1500 is not enough to give up their seat. A younger person may have been more eager to pocket the cash.
$5,000 maybe
Instead of taking private jet.
No, clown should have booked better seats b4 hand
Yo BurtsBees help‼️ 😣
Dude got somethin' growin' out his head, man!
Probably, I dont know who that person is.
I don’t get why he didn’t book first class since the beginning
I don’t know who Cam Newton is, so I’m going with no.
Cam who?
Yes
What a dick, but why is Can not in first class? Why is he back in the village.
Id give it up for $1500
I’d give pretty much anyone my seat.
On a transatlantic flight? The cost difference between a coach seat and a first class seat is usually well over $1,500! How’s that a shocking amount to refuse? Now, had it been $10,000 or $15,000 I might understand the surprise.
I thought Cam was a Baller , no private jet? When you think you know somebody and they turn around and do shit like this. 🤣😂
I would have taken a selfie a game worn jersey signed and tickets in one of the suites opening day , let’s make a deal, 😂🤣
I gave my extra legroom seat the other day to a stranger for nothing. Though I am 6’0” tall and feel I need the space, I couldn’t in good conscience let a 6’8” guy suffer. Hopefully karma has more back
Saying no to him as probably priceless to the dude -
Cam obviously didn't know who he was talking to. That guy probably wipes his ass with $1500.
Quick Fast! As if I was returning a kick
Depends on how long the flight was and where my kids were sitting
How long is the flight?
I would
You shouldn't be flying commercial I guess
Not if I was sitting right next to his girlfriend. That is priceless or a cool 100k. 😀
Maybe for $5000
Bruh I would’ve given up my whole ticket for $1500 tf?
Was the $1500 on top of what the guy paid for his first class ticket? A one way from Paris to dc is 5000 so declining to give up a first class seat for $1500 is a no brainer
Nope not on a ten hour flight.
Probably not. If he is willing to pay $1500 he will pay $2500
Where is he going next. I’ll keep it warm for him.
I’d say no too. Phuck outta here with your riches.
I would. Not that serious. I can pay bills
Yep. I would for anyone not just Cam.
That guy is my new hero.
Hell no
He couldn’t afford first class or at least business class?
2000.00
If I was on a plane to Melbourne to see Sue I wouldn't give up my seat for anyone for any amount of money
No nope nah leg room worth way more
I’d tell him when he can act like a man instead of a whiny crying baby and stop blaming others for his failings, he could have the seat for free
Nope
$1500? No. Who is Cam Newton?
I'd give him my seat. But...it would cost him $2500 and it would be donated to the charity of my choice.
$1,500 I would gave him the seat and 2 packs of peanuts and a complementary drink
Woulda told him to double it, and throw in your hat, I want it signed too, so when I take a shit, I can wipe my ass with it.
Nope 👎 pay more money next time
PapaCarredon32 would u?
I could use $1500. I’d still say no to Cam.
How is this a story? Slow news room today folks?
I'd take another flight for $1500.
Absolutely not. Gonna take more than that for me to help out Cam Newton.
The question is would you give up you seat for $1500.00. That's it.
What Cam couldn’t just book a seat in first class?
In cash? Depends on urgently I need to be on this flight.
If I didn't know he'd treated the media like such shit that year they went to the Super Bowl, I would.
Yes
I won't
Nope !
No.
If you can pay $1500 you certainly can pay $6000 😁😂
If I was a famous football player I’d have been in first class so no need to be bargaining seats
$3000, the hat and (2) tickets to the Bucs vs Panthers and it’s a done deal.
6 thousand I would but 1500 no its too little amount of money to sacrifice for my comfort for my legs for w flight of 10 hours no
Airlines have started charging more for bulkhead seats and it was a 10 hour flight so the answer is no. Not sure why Newton was in 1st class, it’s not like he couldn’t afford it.
Anyone who says yes has either never flown coach or doesn't know that Newton can afford a better seat
For me? Sold $1500.00 American.....
Shoulda been 15,000 CameronNewton being a cheap fuck does not work when you are raking in NFL cash. Pay to play. Alright maybe 6k would have been enough. 1500? pfft what does that buy you? Not much, basically covering his flight with a few extras, not enough to make it happen.
No it has to be more not only 1,500 not enough for me he is rich
His current contract, not including his rookie contract nor his endorsements
$1500 if he was in business the seat probably cost $2-4k
Yeah, I’m poor.
Good for the passenger, a lesson to a rich person that not everything is for sale.
I would hope I would have traded seats with anyone for no charge if it better accommodated their legitimate need? I've traded with families. I think most people would be happy to help others?
Factoring in how much Cam makes per year…I would’ve done it in a seamless manner for 5K and bought him a drink
Why wasn't Cam already flying first class?
I’m sure Cam cried about it too.
For a 10 hour flight? Honestly, Id need more
Newton didn’t want to pay first class rates thinking he could save money by buying some poor suckers seat in coach. If Cam needs more room, he can always fly CARGO! 🤪😁😎🏈
Ea_zy_E
Absolutely.
Why would he
I’d sit on the toilet while people used it for 1,500
I'd give up my seat to anyone for $1500, and maybe I could even get some tix out of this deal.
No,
