Eggs, Hashbrowns and a Gun?

…An early morning run for breakfast at the Waffle House on Paxville Highway in Manning turned terribly wrong for Crystal Samuel.

“I thought I was gonna get me an All-Star,” says Samuel. A popular meal on the menu. “Grits, sausage, toast, eggs and a waffle,” says Samuel.

She didn’t get what she came for…

Nutty story here.

Thanks to Slog tipper Reggie.

  1. Wow. I find that story interesting because more, um, reputable news outlets must edit people’s dialects in quotes. You don’t often see word-for-word quotes like that.

    The normal editing seems kind of condescending… and yet reading “How you want us to leave and we ain’t paid for the food yet” doesn’t leave such a great impression.

    In conclusion: I’m a racist.

  2. I love the comments, too – the alleged criminal “enjoys the company of women” based on her smile in her mug shot.

    Yes, put me in jail so I may scissor fuck all the other ladies! I am so pleased!

  3. Well, it is the South, you know. The last time I checked, it was legal to shoot somebody for throwing food at you.

  4. Bethany, that might be ‘headline of the day’ but I still think that Dom has the best sentence of the day from his closing line on the entry “WooHoo”

    “The rest of the story, which begins at Home Depot and ends with the car on fire…”

  5. In a Pancake House you’d get beat down with a broom handle. Just a better class of people all around.

    @11 – Sorry, care to play again? See the pictures.
