I've never in my life witnessed/been part of the most bizarre behavior over food, much less FRENCH FRIES. My girlfriend Chrissy and I, checked out the Standard Grill for some cocktails to visit my other girlfriend Capri who works there.. Minding our own business at the bar, we receive these delicious fries while we wash them back with cocktails. Minutes later...these drunk guys who were hanging out behind us kept getting increasingly drunker, ESPECIALLY the french fry fellon. Having probably guessed that it's not like peanuts at a bar where everyone shares, he proceeds to ask me if he can have a fry. I, of course, hand him a fry to send him off. But the annoying weirdo didn't stop there. He asked AGAIN, and now this time I'm not as nice, so he backs up. A couple of minutes later I see a scary looking Middle Eastern man getting up from his seat and start attacking this dude all while screaming, "YOU STEAL MY FU**ING FRENCH FRY!". I start laughing and go "yea and he was trying to take mine too". BIG MISTAKE, I added fuel to the fire apparently because the guy yelled like tarzan and kept running after F to the 3rd power. Everyone got out alive, but moral of the story is- beware when ordering the fries at the Standard. They make people do crazy thigs!
nice story cyn.. you need a video camera.
ReplyDeletethis is TOO funny, I have a similiar story. Of course toward the end of a drunken west village night I buy a large fries from good ol' McD's. Well as I was happily eating my fries a white boy walking by me totally lunges his entire grimy palm into my fries, grabs an entire handful, stuffs most of it into his mouth and chucks the rest on the floor... looks at me & goes "thanks I was hungry".
ReplyDeletefunny, but I nearly lunged myself at him! haha.
Fry Fellons are on the rise in NYC !
