WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. A hungry, slightly inebriated man knew just what to do when he stopped by a South Carolina Waffle House early Thursday only to find the restaurant’s staff snoozing: He cooked up his own meal, snapping selfies along the way.

Been here, done that in Virginia. Had to be on the road at 3am to drive to Arkansas. Walked in to get breakfast one person was sitting at a table, head down and cigarette burning. First thought was to leave. I went behind the counter got some coffee dropped a buck on the counter and left.

Those who know Waffle House know this is very possible. Every night between about 2 to 5 AM your local Waffle House is a great place to go to watch a fight or if the spirit moves you get into a fight. You can fight other customers or the staff Your choice.

Horrible food. Dreadful. I’ve only eaten there when sober so that must be it.

Definitely an honest man.

Bet he ‘over paid’ also so the staff could have a ‘tip’.

You don’t have a ‘problem’ when you recognize your problems.

WH makes great food . . . good enough for me to remember when I had a brief two month assignment in SC in a previous life.

I was disappointed in it when I first moved to the south. Then I figured it out ... I made the mistake of ordering waffles at the Waffle House. Their hamburgers are a very good value.
