In college a friend was in love with Waffle House. The grit. The grime. The grease. Waitresses that call you doll baby. Novelty songs on the jukebox. Then she went home to Montreal. And missed it all. Sent us a request – "steal me a Waffle House menu!" This wouldn't be easy. Every Waffle House is a panopiticon. Too small for secrets. But we had a plan. As I studied my menu a guy dumped a pitcher of sweet tea in my lap. I yelled and headed outside. A big mess. With my menu in hand... It was mailed to Canada the next day. Our Big Heist was always going to happen. Whatever the circumstances. You just can't stop shameless youth.

@ruralgloom On a similar note, some friends of mine in the 90s endeavored to steal as much of a full place setting at Perkins as possible.

They had one of those "stands up on the table" menus, a full set of silverware, *and a chair*.

Given Perkins is a 24/7 restaurant, I think the chair was from when they drove past the place while the floors were being deep-cleaned, and they noticed all the chairs were in the parking lot. 🤣

@skullvalanche I could have helped fill in gaps here! A college friend worked at a Florida Perkins. Although this gave us no real advantages? He ignored us and expected a tip "just because."
