So the real switcharoo went down like this:
*Gruden about to debark the Pilot plane, security guy on the ground steps in*
"Woah, hold on, we're getting reports there's a fan live streaming this exact plane, stay here for a minute."
*calls on his walkie*
"Hey, are there any families around? No seriously. Anyone? Yes, that will work. We need them for 15mins."
"Ok Jon, sit tight for a bit. We're going to have to wait this out. Worst comes to worst, we're going to pretend we're picking someone up. You want some water, beer, scotch?"
*20mins pass*
"They're still here? Ok, bring in the family."
*family boards, security watching periscope*
"Perfect, we got 'em, they fell for it. They're leaving the scene. Let's give it 10min for the absolute all clear, and then we'll drive you to the University. Welcome to Knoxville, Coach."
