Both Travis and Lavon Edwards expressed a strong aversion to checking luggage when traveling. Travis stated that every minute waiting at baggage claim feels like wasted vacation time, and Lavon seemed to consider checking a bag only in a life-or-death situation.
“Down. Oh, you what? No problem checking bags. No way. No way. No way.”
“Oh my god. No way. No way. No way. It would have to be death. That's like. It's like, it's a life or death situation though. That would cause me to check a bag.”
“Yeah. I mean, I don't travel nearly as much as Lavon, but I feel the same way. Every minute waiting at baggage claim is a minute of my life that's wasted.”
