A Fat Guy Walks into WHITE CASTLE ... and sues them 'cause he won't fit!

No seriously, he doesn't fit in the booth so he's claiming, under the American's with Disabilities Act, that White Castle is violating his rights.

Basically, at 290 pounds and a self-admitted fat guy, he is upset that he has a hard time sitting in a White Castle booth.

Man Sues White Castle Over Booth Size and Harvest Moon Shines On The Web | Trending Now - Yahoo! News

Even though we live in a supersized world, bigger is not always better. One devoted White Castle customer is suing the restaurant chain because he can't fit into the restaurant's booths. Martin Kessman, who weighs 290 pounds, complained to management for more than two years after repeatedly knocking his knee into the tables' metal supports.

After the 64-year-old New York stockbroker sent a series of letters of complaint to the chain, he received what he called condescending responses. White Castle sent him free hamburger coupons and promised that it would expand its booth sizes. But the booths were never changed and Kessman is now taking his case to federal court. He is suing for bigger chairs and unspecified damages because he says the eatery is violating the Americans with Disabilities Act. (He compares himself to pregnant women and the handicapped.)

The lawsuit, however, has not put an end to Kessman's love of mini burgers. Now, instead of going to White Castle himself, he sends his wife.

He is the poster boy for what is wrong in the court system. How is it a chains responsibility for his fat ass? He could try sitting at a counter or just do take out and shut up! :hammer:

That fat guy is Joe Q. Public, I am afraid.
The average person has a difficult time sliding into a lot of booths at restaurant chains.
Besides, I didn't think it was his girth that was the problem, as much as it was his knees were banging against the table support underneath.

Maybe they will offer free burgers for him to stay away!

Sounds like "Whimpy" from Popeye, always on the scam for a hamburger!

I will gladly sue you Tuesday, for some sliders today.




Anyway, he is #300, 64 years old, and an apparant frequent visitor of the fast food. He's gonna die soon anyway.
