American Airlines Helps Old Men Impregnate Women

American Airlines currently has a deal that feels more like progressive Vegas slots than anything else.  Biggest payout: 100,000 bonus miles.  Chances ANYONE will get those miles: 1 in Well, Think Back About the Hottest Person in Your High School that You Forever Crushed on But Never Got the Chance to Be With; Your Chances Are the Same.  


The Deal: Basically, you need to fly a round trip flight in or out of some of their less-traveled destinations.  Fly to 2 of them and you get 1,000 miles.  Fly to 3 cities and you've got 4,000 miles. Get to ten cities and you will net you the 100k.

I can't think of a single situation in which someone would fly to all these particular places (listed below).  I mean, Kentucky and China?  Seriously?  Well, maybe it could be done by an independently wealthy geezer (pictured at right) who has two months to live and wants to impregnate women in each of these cities.  You know, setting up franchises.

Have a better reason for why someone would? Leave it in the comments.
