Burger King: No Shoes Rule Taken Too Far With Baby

AP) Like most restaurants, the Burger King in this St. Louis suburb has a no shoes, no shirt, no service policy. And baby, do they enforce it. Too much so, the company admitted, after apologizing for restaurant workers who asked a mother to leave because her 6-month-old wasn't wearing shoes.

Jennifer Frederich, her mother and Frederich's infant daughter, Kaylin, stopped at the Burger King in Sunset Hills on Sunday. The baby was shoeless _ Frederich figured tiny baby feet were immune from the rule.

But workers told the family to leave because the shoeless baby was violating a health code. In fact, shoelessness is not a health code violation in St. Louis County.

Frederich told KTVI-TV that she and her mother ate hurriedly and left before they could be kicked out. Frederich did not have a listed phone number, and The Associated Press could not reach her for comment.

Burger King released a statement Thursday indicating workers had taken the no shoes, no service policy too far.

The 64 Million Pants

When the local Washington D.C. dry cleaner lost Roy Pearson’s pants, he was not happy. He complained, demanded compensation, and took action. And boy, did he take action. Roy Pearson is suing Custom Cleaners for $65,462,500 for his lost pair of trousers, with a claimed value of $800.

So how did Pearson get to a $65 million lawsuit from an $800 pair of trousers? Washington’s consumer protection law provides for damages of $1,500 per violation per day. Pearson began multiplying: 12 violations over 1,200 days, times three defendants. A pant leg here, a pant leg there, and soon, he’s up to his $65 million lawsuit.
