Airlines overbooking flights is unfortunately a standard practice, on average a certain percentage of people flake per flight so they deduct a safety margin and overbook by that amount. Since it's an average there are going to be times when too many people really do show up. It sucks but if they didn't do that and inconvenience the small percentage of people who cop it then you'd be paying more for your ticket.

Glad to hear you're ok. Let us know what happens with the lawsuit...
