Billy Joe Armstrong was no superstar to the flight attendant who kicked him off a Southwest flight for refusing to pull up his pants.

"just got kicked off a Southwest flight because my pants sagged too low! What the f**k? No joke!" the Green Day frontman tweeted to his fans.

The incident occurred Thursday night when the punk rocker was boarding an Oakland to Burbank flight.

According to another passenger, Armstrong's reaction was to ask the attendant if there weren't "better things to worry about."

The American Idiot singer was then told to leave.

His tweet about the incident earned a quick Twitter reply from the airline.

"Very sorry for your experience tonight, someone from our Customer Relations Team will reach out to you to get more details."

This was the second time a passenger has been kicked off a Southwest flight for droopy drawers.  A college student got the same treatment in June.  He's now suing the airline.

Bottom line is its a SAFETY HAZARD. If they had to evacuate and he was tripping over himself it would not be a good day. If the were a SWA or FAA inspector on that aircraft ,the flight attendants might have gotten written up for NOT booting him.

I don't want to see someone's trousers hanging around their thighs while their underwear or the crack of their butt is in full view. I don't blame the airlines. Get the f*ck off if you don't want to comply by the the rules. Ride the bus.

Is SouthWest run by Mormons or does the airline just employ a bunch of religious idiots? Customers don't need dress Nazis pushing their agendas. Concentrate on giving better service instead of harrassing people, SW has had too many such incidents.

Puleeze, I'm an athiest and can assure you have no desire to see someone's azz-crack on an air plane, or die during an emergency because he move fast enough with his stupid pants down to get off the plane. Seriously, R U that stupid?

Well, the jerk could always pull his pants up. He doesn't have a right to fly.
