Woman about town Chrissy Teigen has a gift: spotting air marshals on flights. The supermodel recently shared her secret passion on Twitter for the world to know.
First, she brought everyone up to speed, reminding her followers about a time when she was spotting air marshals left and right. But then, there was this mysterious business about "getting the coin," which sounds like it could be the hook in a new hit rap song. (It's not.) Teigen explains:
Remember my streak of finding the air marshal? I would call them out on it every flight and they'd deny, then upon landing I get the coin

They have coins, pins, cards, all sorts of things. It is weird. It is my passion. https://t.co/CgiaBcK6H4

She's able to do this, even though the air marshals cannot even reveal their identity to her until after the flight. She is persistent. The woman should be an inspiration to us all.
Being a woman of the people, Teigen imparted some serious knowledge about how to find these guys in a crowd. Rest assured, there will be signs:
They can't tell you until after the flight. Telling signs: backpack. Not drinking no matter how much I press them to. Aisle seat. Sneakers.

7! Most are on flights to New York or DC. Going to DC now. https://t.co/zEmNVRIiiG
