Before Thanksgiving, we wrote about some of the strange things that TSA agents see fliers try to bring on airplanes. 

We asked you fine readers about some of the strangest things you’ve encountered on planes — and it turns out y’all have seen some sh*t.

  • A giant game-show checkAriahna
  • A pizza box, stored in an overhead compartment — Aditi
  • 4-5 crates of dead fish on ice — Riley
  • A giant, disassembled chandelierSusan
  • An entire dead hog, on ice — Emily
