PANAMA CITY — Oh, what a feeling. Toy Yoda!

A former Hooters waitress has sued the restaurant where she worked, saying she was promised a new Toyota for winning a beer sales contest.

Instead, she said, she won a new toy Yoda — the little green guy from the "Star Wars" movies.

EDIT: Nevermind. Re-read it..

Guess it is a good "owned" pic.

 

[Black_Mamba]

It's a classic then.

Thats genius management right there.

That chick looks pretty sour.

 

[Pattergen]

Prime for an 'owned' picture.

'Toy Yoda Owned!'

 

[Guzim]

Hahahah. That is amazing.

EDIT: She has small boobs even though she works at Hooters

 

[aoi tsuki]

She looks really hot when she's mad.

 

[AeroGod]

What was the outcome of the lawsuit?

 

[Socreges]

A radio station in the States did something like this. I used to have the mp3.

If a caller could answer a set of questions correctly, they would win 100 Grand. So, some dude got through, answered the questions bang on, and won! He was ecstatic, yelling to his friends in the background, and listing off all the things he would do with the money. Then the DJ says:

"How are you going to do all of that with a chocolate bar?"

- "Huh?"

"A 100 Grand chocolate bar. That's what you won."

It was pretty freaky how angry the guy got. He was hysterical and probably destroyed his entire house after hanging up.

Fucking funny as hell, though.

 

[Alcibiades]

Toy Yoda > Toyota anyway...

[Grizzlyjin]

This is a pretty old news story but I still get a chuckle out of it.

What was the outcome of the lawsuit?

Hooters had to buy her the Toyota of her choice.

 

[Vennt]

Heh, it would have made a nice "owned" pic, was it not for the fact that in May 2002 she won the lawsuit, and got to pick the car of her choice

Hooters: owned!

May 7th, 2002

Unbelievable folks. This is an update to the waitress who thought she won a new Toyota vehicle. SHE WON the lawsuit! They settled. Jodee Berry, 27, will now get to pick the car of her dreams. I bet she picks a Rav4.

edit: Bah, JC beat me to it

Considering his rage, the file size of that particular mp3 is rather fitting...

 

[Dkong]

They also gave her an undisclosed cash settlement.

"YOU SAID 100 GRAND!"

ROTFL!

 

[Escape Goat]

:lol

 

[levious]

yeah, it was not surprising that they settled despite that they'd have likley won in court, pretty poor choice and horrible publicity for the company.

AAHHH! LOL

 

[Chittagong]

ahahahaha, that's fantastic, you can really hear how the guy turns from the happiest man on the face of earth to the angriest in a split-second. I wonder how he didn't have a heart attack.

 

[MaddenNFL64]

"I am the winner!"

to

"You guys are a bunch of douche bags!"

lol!

I feel for the guy, but that's a great joke. Of course, if it was played on me, and I actually thought I won $100,000, i'd probably burn down the radio station :\.
