Brooks lamented that his burger, fries and alcohol combo cost $78 in a post on the X platform (formerly known as Twitter) that has been viewed almost 15 million times.
"This is why Americans think the economy is terrible," Brooks wrote in the post with a photo of the food.
But did it really cost $78? According to internet sleuths, a burger and fries at Smokehouse in Terminal A, where Brooks dined, tops out at $18.00.
Brooks' post was quickly ratioed with X platform users mocking the context (do people really eat out at airports?), and wondering why Brooks presumably spent so much on whiskey.
Brooks has not tweeted since (hopefully) enjoying his (possibly) expensive meal.
