Talk About Your Slow Service

The following is a "web exclusive" from the online edition of the Hometown Herald.
[HOMETOWN] — The drive-thru of the [Hometown] Whataburger at 6400 [Main] Street was closed for nearly an hour when a man fell asleep at the ordering box Friday morning. Whataburger employees said they called the police after the man blocked the lane with his car and appeared to be asleep at around 12:30 a.m. [Hometown] police removed the man and transported him to the County Justice Center. The lane remained blocked until a tow truck could move the vehicle.
Honestly. I did not make this up. The man FELL ASLEEP while waiting in line at Whataburger. I must admit that the service is so slow at our Whataburger that I've caught myself dozing a time or two, but at least I can be roused from my catnap when the speaker blasts, "Do you want fries with that?"

I've said it before...some posts just write themselves...

Why did they have to haul him to jail? Couldn't someone have just gone out there and woke him up?
