U.S. Curling Team Denied a Delta Flight Upgrade After Wining Olympic Gold

John Shuster and the U.S. curling team are probably flying back home on something less than first class after winning gold at the Olympics ... all 'cause Delta denied 'em an upgrade.

The official U.S. Curling handle hit up Delta on Twitter Saturday asking if there was a way to get upgraded on the flight home from PyeongChang after taking 1st in men's curling.

@Delta our Olympic #curling champions are flying home on Monday. Upgrades?!? ud83dude03 #GoldMedalists @CoachPhill @TeamShuster

Unfortunately, Delta said it had nothing for them upgrade-wise .
