Man calls cops for wrong Subway order

Wednesday, August 6, 2008

A US man, who rang the cops when Subway workers stuffed up his order, was himself arrested by police for wasting their time.

Reginald Peterson ordered a Spicy Italian Sub with the works, but the healthy fast-food chain put mayo and mustard on it, instead of his preferred sauce. This put the Seppo over the edge and Peterson called police twice to complain.

Subway sanga makers told police the Florida bloke yelled at them when they were making his roll, so they locked him out of the store when he left to call police, as reported on PerezHilton.com.

When cops arrived, they tried to calm the 42-year-old and explain the proper use of the emergency services number. When Peterson continued to act like a pork chop, he was arrested on a charge of making inappropriate 911 calls.

Ohhhhhh yes......this I believe, has gone on long enough! The poor pommies have been copping the raw end of the deal for far too long......and yes, I do believe that people tend to generalise alot in this area. I can speak from experience however, and while some poms do whinge.....alot!.....it's unfair to soley pick on one race for this.........might I suggest Indians, Pakistanis, the Irish, Sri Lankins etc etc........we all love a good whinge from time to time, let's face it. I have to take issue with this , um, rather odd person in the Subway Sandwich incident though. What the heck was he on??!!!! It's one thing to be upset over an incorrect order, but to go completely septic over it is quite another......and calling to local bill, the fuss, Mr plod....what's that about?! I'm pleased that he was arrested though, maybe he'll think twice about chucking a wobbly next time.....or at least will hesitate to get the boys in blue involved!!!! Let's save 911 for Actual Emergencies!

hey have ya's ever thought it might be just there accents lol etc Heyy heve anyofyall found mea chiickenn yeahya,yeehaa

to be very honest i have travelled all over the world and find that they are the bigest of all winges

I once heard a Yank whinging about the word word 'whinge'. He claimed there shouldn't be a 'g' in it - that there is NO SUCH WORD as whinge, that the right word is 'whine'. Seriously. What a yanker.

I think America, just! Got to love this great land though!!
