"What
sounds to be one of the most disgusting sites on the web is actually
one of the funniest. A comprehensive collection of "barf bags" from
airlines worldwide, this site has pictures and descriptions for each
one (none are shown used). If you've ever been curious about the world
of the barf bag, this is the place for you!" Boscoplace

This
bag is BIG
In a bid
to knock Niek Vermeulen off his perch as the world's biggest baggist,
Virgin Atlantic has issued a bag big enough for you to climb into.
This latest Virgin advertising stunt takes a sideswipe at budget
airlines. The text is a bit longer than most baggists are used to
reading, but I do recommend you read through to the bottom - it
mentions our noble avocation!
Credit
goes to Michael Christopher Scott who sent the
picture and to Christian Mundigo & his wife Braden
Rhetts who snagged the bag from a billboard in NYC.
On
December 4, 2008, the USA business magazine Forbes
did include Rune's barf Bag Collection in an
article about odd collections.
Rune's
Barf Bag Collection now exhibits:
1872
different bags from
594
airlines in 144 countries!
How
I count bags: I count all barf bags,
airline, bus, train, boat, generic (but only once!) and advertisement
bags as long as they are barf bags. I don't count
or collect plain white bags or non barf bags.
