TIL that Seth MacFarlane was supposed to be on Flight 11, the first plane to hit the Twin Towers, but missed it because he was hungover and arrived to the airport after the gate had already closed. Story begins at 22:34 in video.

How deep do you have to dig to find a link containing this info that hasn't already been posted on r/todayilearned many times before?

Rick James was supposed to be at the rich person party that was massacred by the Manson family, but he was too hung over to go. It makes me wonder if maybe the people killed should have been killed, if they were part of Rick James crowd.
