Alabama police say a dispute over crab legs at a dinner buffet ended in a brawl that left two people facing misdemeanor charges.
Huntsville police officer Gerald Johnson says he was eating at the Meteor Buffet restaurant when a fight broke out.
Johnson tells WHNT-TV that diners were using service tongs like fencing swords and plates were shattering, and a woman was beating a man. Johnson says diners had been waiting in line for crab legs for more than 10 minutes, and they lost their tempers once the food came out.

"diners were using service tongs like fencing swords..."LOL! That's worth the price of admission.
1) You meet the nicest people around at places where you can eat until you are bloated.
2)Chucky Cheese squabbles are good, but Waffle house food fights are still the best.

The restaurant is not blameless in this situation. They lure people in with crab, then give them all you can eat wontons. They made them wait to get their money’s worth and built up a “black Friday” type situation where people fall over each other to get the few legs that come out of the kitchen.

This could have been a Shonies when they bring the bacon out at the breakfast buffet, but those two are too thin.
