Some people wait in line for five hours just to get their fix at Austin’s famous Franklin Barbecue. And who can blame them? The establishment is less than 10 years old but has been cited as the nation’s best.
Of course, President Obama is not “some people.” After a campaign-style speech in Austin on Thursday afternoon, the commander in chief made a stop by Franklin Barbecue and was quickly ushered to the front of the line.
It’s common practice to let a president cut to the front of the line at a dining establishment. After all, the president arguably has the busiest schedule on the planet. Plus, having a president standing in one place only creates headaches for everyone else who is just trying to get some food.

“Just wait until Hitler hears about this!”
Be funny to get the “Hitler reacts to Obama cutting the line at the BBQ” video.
>> After all, the president arguably has the busiest golf schedule on the planet.
Hehehe!!
Well apparently your peeps pooped and let Hussein slide.....
It’s Texas, brisket... the sausage maybe pork... and the ribs come both ways... but it is brisket the place is known for...
During World War 2, on US Navy ships, everyone had to stand in the gedunk line to get ice cream. Once, on the USS New Jersey, a couple shave tail oficers decided to cut to the head of the line. A gruff voice from back in the line called them out with the words: “Hey, no cuts; you get in the back.” It was Fleet Admiral William Halsey, who was arguably the busiest admiral on the face of the planet. He was waiting in line no different than any of his sailors.
Did he order pork or beef?
That’s weird.....as often as I’ve gone to Austin, no one has ever suggested Franklins.......just Rudy’s or Salt Lick, etc.
Austin gets a bad rap here at FR, but I personally know there are some great ( and conservative) folks who live there.
Only with Reggie!
I imagine he had the Halal Brisket.
That the Texans in line at that joint collectively didn't say a word. That's a bad sign of things in Texas.
I'd have gone to jail for the opportunity to ask, out LOUD,
LOL! Oh yeh!
haha, you mean “Pi$$”? It wasn’t series!
OK stand corrected on Franklins. Thx. Still obamaumao butting in line— what a maroon and so typical. A special set of rules for the “ruling” existential class of morons.
Actual leaders go to the end of the line, and make sure everyone else has eaten, before they get in line.
Class (or lack thereof) always shows...
