Forrie J. Smith took to Instagram to address why he was "kicked off" an airplane on Saturday.

The 65-year-old "Yellowstone" actor alleged that he was removed from his flight after he refused to sit next to someone wearing a mask.

"...Like, I just got kicked off a plane in... Where the hell am I at?" he said, prompting an unknown woman to respond, "You're in Houston."

"Houston, Texas," he repeated to his over 509,000 followers on Instagram before adding, "Because I told them that I didn't feel comfortable sitting next to somebody with a mask on."

In the clip, Smith, who wore a camo cap, black and white checked shirt and a forest green jacket, also admitted that he had "been drinking."

"I've been sitting in the airport for three hours, yeah, I've been drinking. I ain't drunk," he said.

"But they threw me off the plane because I'm drunk. Because you people won't stand up and tell everybody what b***s**t this is. I just told them I didn't feel comfortable about sitting next to somebody who had to wear a mask, and I'm off a plane."

Smith's post quickly received mixed responses from the netizens.

"I love the tough guy act while also saying the sissiest thing I've heard in a long time. Scared of a mask. Haha," commented one netizen.

"You may not be falling down drunk, but you're definitely under the influence. That's what got you booted. Man up and admit alcohol made you run your mouth, and now you're paying the price," someone else wrote.

"[Not gonna lie] I lost some respect. What if [the] person was visiting a sick family member and was just being extra safe? Always be kind. You never know what they might be going through," opined another person.

"I have to say I'm a little disappointed in you," said a different netizen.

"Nobody was making you wear the mask, so what the F is the problem? You made a stink about it after drinking, and they threw you off the plane. Good for them," a fifth IG user commented.

"Get a grip, Forrie. It's not about you. If it's what makes that person comfortable, leave them be. Maybe, they didn't want to sit next to a stinking drunk cowboy," claimed someone else.

Meanwhile, one netizen said, "I don't understand why they didn't simply move you."

"I love the fact you made that statement. Made me actually follow your Instagram account for the first time," another added.

"We love you. This is craziness, and I'm story this happened to you," someone else stated.

 

Smith is known for his role as Lloyd Pierce in Taylor Sheridan and John Linson's neo-Western drama TV series "Yellowstone."

Other stars of the show include Kevin Costner, Luke Grimes, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Cole Hauser, Kelsey Asbille and Gil Birmingham, among many others.
