Boarding on a Spirit Airlines flight from Cleveland, Ohio to Tampa Florida to eventually end up at one of former President Donald Trump's scheduled rallies in Conroe, Texas, Adam Radogna was surprised when a flight attendant told him he needed to change his mask that read "Let's Go, Brandon," on Friday (January 28).

His flight was from Cleaveland to Tampa, and as he entered the flight, the attendant initially laughed at the mask but allegedly changed her mood when she noticed his attire; a Trump hat, Trump shoes, a shirt, and mask that read "Let's Go, Brandon."

"Let's go Brandon" became a meme among conservative circles after a NASCAR driver, Brandon Brown, won a race and during the post-race interview, derisive chants of "f*** Joe Biden" were misinterpreted as "Let's go Brandon", making the expression a stand-in for the original "f*** Joe Biden" chants.

Adam told Newsflare: "She told me that I needed to replace it because it's political. I proceeded to go to my seat and when I sat down I started to record. Where the video starts., You can hear her saying that the mask can be offensive and that I need to turn it off and/or wear the mask she provided. I felt that my rights were violated. The mask was compliant. It covered my nose and mouth. When I left the plane, I asked for a supervisor that agreed with me that the mask was fine and he would speak to her and see what happened."
