I'd like 500 orders of fries

11 years ago

Well, if that's a clue...looks like the next generation won't be pointing to Asian countries as living a long life due to a healthy diet. Such gluttony.

Thanks

Crazy kids.

The picture in the article looks crazy!

In fairness, aslong as they paid I'd let them order as much as they wanted.

That actually sounds fun

I remember somebody used to call the restaurant where I worked and try to order about a hundred gyro sandwiches. Considering they were supposedly calling on someone else's behalf, trying to pay with a credit card, and refusing to place the order in person, we naturally assumed they were making a crank call and hung up on 'em every time.

Now I wonder if maybe they were serious

I don't get it? Why would you boot people ordering that much food?

It looks like fun to me as well.

I agree. They were paying customers and just a bunch of college kids having some fun. Eating tons of french fries sounds alot better than those goldfish eating contests kids did in the 50's.

Yeah - it seems like harmless fun to me, too - however harmless sitting and stuffing yourself full of those fries is anyhow. Healthier than the trashcan parties where we used to buy a trashcan and everyone just brought a bottle of booze to pour in and you drank whatever the outcome was.

The guy should have just put up with the kids. I'm sure it's not an every night event. Let them have some fun, if that's their idea of it. Bet the owner had a better rake for the night than he's had in a long time.

People just aren't allowed to be playful and have fun anywhere anymore. You do the same kind of innocent crap now that we used to do - and you get arrested or tased, or sent to a shrink to get drugged. It's really sad to me that we've let ourselves lose any sense of play or humor.

Ohio University in Athens. Must have been a midwest thing. Take a garbage can, throw in a new garbage bag, fill it with every alcohol you have around the house, some fruit and serve. Yeah, that doesn't sound disgusting now.

Wait! You guys used garbage bags in your trash cans?

We just bought new trash cans and figured all of the alcohol would kill any germs. lol!

Yuck, everyone knows that once those fries get cold they sure aren't anywhere near as good. Now if those kids had been smarter, they would have just kept giving orders for new servings hot out of the fryer.

Anyway, McDonalds doesn't make much money from me unless I'm really starved and they are the only place around that is open.

That's so awesome!

I may have to try that here.

The craziest I got was about 2:30am one night a friend of mine and I got hungry. Wendy's was selling bacon cheeseburgers for 99 cents at the time. So after finding out we had about $28 between us we ordered 24 bacon cheeseburgers in the drive through.

It was hilarious

Thanks

Crazy kids.

Joe,

At my local Chick-fil-A, there was a group of four kids who would come in every Saturday morning and order eight large waffle fries, drinks... and no other food. They would quickly polish off every last morsel....

Crazy kids... indeed...

God Bless,

Rich Beck BCIP, MCSD, MCIS

Must be a Southern thing, eh?

We had empty house parties along with the garbage cans - all the furniture in the living room and dining room was hauled to the garage so it wouldn't get trashed. Bedroom furniture stayed so we'd have somewhere to throw those fallen in action.
