TikToker Calls Out TSA 'Choir' For Singing At Airport Instead Of Helping With Long Line

TikToker @yeniyazmin1 was annoyed while filming a choir of TSA agents singing at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas instead of helping the long line of travelers get through security faster.

Imagine being stressed and late for your flight, and suddenly you hear a choir start to serenade you while you're waiting in line.

While the Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas might have thought that implementing a choir would be a soothing and enjoyable experience to get future flyers in the mood for their vacations, the actual travelers did not see it that way.


TikToker @yeniyazmin1 was on her way out of Las Vegas, waiting in the very long security lines at the Harry Reid International Airport, where the Transport Security Administration (TSA) was clearly understaffed.

The TikToker reached the point where she was worried that she would miss her flight, and a TSA agent reassured her that she was doing the best that she could.

That was when the choir tuned in and began singing "I'll Rise Up" from a stage that was set up just beyond the area where flyers go after they've completed the security check. The choir was made up of fellow TSA agents who were volunteering on their days off.

You can watch the video here:

Harry Reid airport in Las Vegas has line of baggage waiting to be checked with only 1 person checking each side and they have the TSA chorus performing??? Make it make 🤬 sense!!! #lasvegas #vegas #vegastiktok #tsa #tsaprecheck #harryreidairport #fyp #fyppppppppppppppppppppppp #viral

According to the TSA, agents are often villainized by travelers for their cold demeanor, and the Harry Reid International Airport wanted to do something to close the gap between the agents and the passengers.

They believed that by doing something like a choir, it would get their passengers in the mood for their vacations, instead of stressing so much about moving through the checkpoint, and the passengers might begin to see the agents in not so harsh of a light.

But fellow TikTokers reassured @yeniyazmin1 that if she hadn't posted the video, they wouldn't have believed it.

It's nice that the airport is trying to make the entire experience of being at the airport, including going through security checkpoints, a little more enjoyable and a little less stressful for passengers.

However, for passengers who are just trying to get to their flights on time, they'd probably prefer to see the additional TSA agents who are volunteering on their days off stop singing and start scanning some bags.

Jesse Watters Blasted For Hypocrisy After Using Term He Was Previously Outraged By

Fox News personality Jesse Watters was called out for hypocrisy after he described the oustings of ABC News correspondent Terry Moran and Democratic National Committee (DNC) Vice Chair David Hogg as them having been "86'd"—just weeks after complaining about the term "86 47," which he sees as a clear call to assassinate President Donald Trump.

The term "86" means to eject, discard, or disprove of, and though it's said to have military origins, it's commonly used in restaurants when getting rid of unruly customers or when a patron has specific dietary restrictions. For example, saying "86 the mushrooms on the burger" means to prepare a burger sans mushrooms. Similarly, saying "86 the burger with mushrooms" means to not make the burger at all.
