Aren't poodles hypoallergenic? He's holding it at arms length regardless. Lame post, bro.

I always say I'm allergic to dogs, because I hate dogs and don't want to be near them. Besides, it's his seat, he paid for it. Who cares?

Seriously? Can't spend a flight one seat apart?

Al Roker is a dick, always has been. Those of us who are stationed overseas get the pleasure of listening to what he says when the Today show cuts to local stations. He is rude and condescending to the people he works with and the people in the audience.

Kind of a dick move, Al.

just as a note poodles do not shed and would not affect his allergies.

Why should he give up his seat for anyone ? IABT you wouldn't understand….

Al Roker rules… And this is probably something that would be different if you were there … But in the name of fairness I must ask if he was sitting in the middle of a three row seat why not move one over in the OTHER direction ???

I'll just say that you can find many pictures of me with cats, although I'm still allergic to them.
A 6 hour flight next to one wouldn't be too fun, whereas a 5 minute segment where I took medication and was getting paid wouldn't be that bad.

I always suspected he wasn't as hr appeared. Jerk.

I thought I was going to contribute something valuable, but looks like everyone already said what I was going to say: poodles are hypoallergenic. Leave poor ol' Al Roker alone.

Poodles are hypoallergenic dogs! Good to have when you're allergic to dogs! Nice try!

According to my mother, who supposedly knows everything, poodles are hypo-allergenic, as they have hair instead of fur; which is why she bought a poodle instead of a real dog. Also, Van Halen blows. As counterpoint, Al Roker blows too; and nobody ever buys an Al Roker, hypo-allergenic or not. Alia octa est.

I think Al Roker is a hero. I mean, have you heard the last few Van Halen records? What goes around, comes around.
