Vita.mn links to and discusses a FOX9 report about the somewhat chaotic scene around the Lake Street Popeye’s franchise, the only Popeye’s in Minneapolis, who decided not to honor a nationally televised one-day only sale, leading to some irate customers. Irate enough that the cops showed up.

I saw Jeremy @afterglide tweet about that one last week…laughed quite hard. I especially like how Tom Lyden throws out the meatballs.
The highlights are obviously the guy who took a cab from burnsville and our two leading ladies with the incar ride-along.
Lyden does a nice job of stoking the fire with questions such as “that’s not 8 pieces for four dollars is it?”
Gold…PURE GOLD!

Tom Lyden is the Steve Marsh of Fox 9 News. Or is Marsh the Tom Lyden of MSP?

I saw this a few weeks back. Did they re-broadcast during sweeps?

I do like Popeye’s chicken, and I won’t wait for a coupon to get it.

I think you’re confusing it with the Leprechaun in a Tree in Moblie, AL story that airs every St. Patty’s.

Somehow this is racist. I’ll get back to y’all as soon as I pinpoint exactly how this is racist.

not that it is anything new, but i don’t think you’ll have a hard time labeling the youtube comments on that story as racist.

I haven’t even looked at the youtube comments but they’re probably homophobic as well.

I’m sorry but this is hilarious to me. Do people really have that little on their minds that they would get upset about this to the point police are needed? wow.

Some people take chicken very seriously!
