Have you slept overnight in an airport terminal?

Hi fellow mylotters, I read this news about a Japanese guy (Hiroshi Nohara) who has been living in an airport in Mexico City for three months already. For unknown reasons, he chose not to leave the airport even when authorities told him so. He is surviving from the food given by the staff from the airport's food court and some money from the waiting passengers. Over time, he has become a sort of a celebrity. He reminds me of Tom Hanks' character in The Terminal. Life immitating art? Heheh. How about you, have you slept overnight in the airport?

No. I wouldn't be able to sleep overnight in an airport even if I have to...unless i am offered a bedroom to spend the night.

Yes, I have heard of him as well. Well, as far as I am as concerned myself and my friends have been touring a city of my country and were into the Airport. Lately, We are very disappointed to know that all Plane have been canceled that night due to bad whether. We had no other choice except staying in the Airport till the morning. Because, the plane was scheduled at 5 AM in the morning. So yes, we had slept in the Airport that night.

Wow that's interesting. He slept there? xD I wonder how if he bathes and if he smells like a homeless person by now. And no I have not slept ovenight at an airport in fear of getting my luggage and personal belongings stolen while I am asleep. .
