He goes and asks the gate agent why no seat, the agent informs him sorry, we're oversold and you won't be on this flight and there isn't anything I can do about it. So he had to get a PD for his trip and he's got some Delta dollars to burn, someday.

Yep that hurts. DFW commuting in the summer at its finest.
