They got excited for Randy Travis at LAX?

I am really wondering if I am missing something. Why was it such a big deal that Randy Travis was flying out of LAX? I realize he was flying coach, but that can't be the reason they met him outside and escorted him as they did. In LA, one would assume that celebrities are seen multiple times per day in the air port.
