Travel tale: 5F - Mike Harris

So I'm boarding my flight in Salt Lake City last week to fly home. The gate agent is checking in the First Class cabin (myself included) but asks us to wait at the Jetway door for a few minutes. As we're standing there, the gate agent calls out "Is someone in seat 5F?" "Yes" comes the confirmation from another guy in the line. "Are you Mike Harris?" asks the agent. "Yes" he responds.
The gate agent turns back to the gentleman who had just presented his boarding pass and asks "What's your name?" "Mike Harris" comes the reply!

So two Mike Harris' were on the same flight and were assigned to the same seat at check-in!

Just then the Mike Harris waiting in line pipes up to the other Mike Harris - "Did you pick up a rental car here in Salt Lake City about 3 weeks ago?" He told us that when he got to the Hertz Rental Counter his car was already gone - and he got into one of those "Where's my car?" - "But you have the car, Sir" dilemmas...

I think I'll have to watch out for other Jim Marshalls!
