Police Called to McDonald's After Fight Over Fries

Just give me the fries, and everybody goes home to their families.
  • "Just give me the fries, and everybody goes home to their families."

This is a great Christmas story (we’re still on the holiday tip) because despite being straight from the more ridiculous annuls of the police blotter, it’s anchored in some gosh darn messy love between a man and his missus.

French fries are the source of the conflict here. According to the Sandusky Register, 45-year-old Robert A. Quilen decided to stop by the McDonald’s in Perkins township to pick up an order of the salty sticks for his wife before she went to work last Sunday. He noticed the fast-food joints' employees served him up an order from the discarded stack of fries, and Quilen demanded a fresh batch for his wife.
