Buffet fans crash Pig Roast. Several years back the 'ol man & I were at an asphalt convention (I think it was in Charleston). Anyway, there was a pre-paid group dinner (Pig Roast) one night for our group at a local bar. We no more than got off the bus and sat down then a mob swarmed the buffet and ate all our food before any of us could get any. We had to wait for three hours before they could cook more. At that point they put special ID braclets on us for crowd control. It turns out that Jimmy Buffet was known to unexpectedly drop in this bar from time to time, and a rumor spread thru town that he was going to be there that night. The people who barged in and ate our food said they thought Jimmy was treating them to a free pig roast!!! The convention organizers ended up refunding our money so we ate for free too (hours later). I hope the bar forwarded the bill to Buffet. Luckily we were with some goofy friends and had a great time waiting. The moral of the story is, don't let obnoxious Buffet fan behaviour ruin your evening no matter what.
