[Cannikin]

ATLANTA (AP) - An airline passenger wearing only a pair of pajama bottoms stole a baggage tractor at the city's main airport and drove it onto an active runway early Wednesday, police said.
Atlanta police say Robert W. Buzzell, 31, had walked out an exit door that had an alarm at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

Flights were not affected by the incident, which took place before 6 a.m., airport officials said.

The man was stopped by mechanics who asked him for an employee identification card. When he could not provide one, they escorted him to an office and called police.

1. i ALWAYS wear my pj's when stealing tractors of any kind. they're so comfy

when i'm feeling nuts! and there's nowhere like an airport to run around wearing pj's and not have anyone seem to notice. like security?

2. Did he have a towel?

And was he mumbling about "eddies in the space-time continuum"?

'Cause you should always have a towel when travelling...
