let me tell ya that just simply wasn't enough of a weight loss for them. So, they ended up taking a mini van. My cousin got the first row and her husband sat throughout the entirety of his seat too. It was behind hers. There was still room for the luggage, thank goodness! Lol 
About 5 years ago I hailed a cab in NYC. I thought it was obvious that there were 4 of us standing there, and 2 of us, including myself, are pretty big. So 3 people jump in the back and I go to get in the front and the cab driver says he's not moving his bag for me to sit there. Unless I planned to lie across the laps of the people in the back there was just no way I was fitting. He agreed to let me hold his bag so long as I promised not to steal from it. Thankfully it was a short ride. I wondered why he pulled over for 4 people when he really didn't have 4 seats. It's the only time I've ever had that happen. In Vegas I know there is a limit of 5 people, even though the minivans often have a 6th seat. But that's the law there, so I get it.
