The lobster tails were worth about $1,900.

“The lobster tails were worth about $1,900.”
Wow, must be some DAMN GOOD LOBSTER. I typically don’t pay more than $20 or so each.

I’d love to see what punishment would be doled out by Joe Pesci if the casino was being managed by Robert DeNiro.

These must have been some SPECIAL lobster tails, to be worth $76 EACH, IMO.

"The lobster tails were worth about $1,900"
I wonder if they calculated that number using the price of the lobster on the menu or what the restaurant paid for them?
To: Gamecock
Geez officer, I don’t know where they came from. They must have tailed me home!

Actual value is probably $50.00. I’m sure that’s what the casino paid for them. Whatever. He stole and stealing is stealing.

I fail to understand the popularity of these bottom feeding scavengers. Yes, I’ve had them with drawn butter. Not a fan.

Were they cooked, destined for the trash? True value would be $0, although still against the rules to take them.
I took home food a lot when I worked fast food years ago, with management's permission. Never knew I was a criminal.
