I am almost positive that this isn’t the ideal way Waffle House wanted to get national publicity. But on the bright side, look at all the marketing opportunities this has presented. In fact, it looks like Kid Rock and Waffle House have already hooked up on a new promotional campaign hyping up the delicacies that the restaurant chain has to offer. Check out the billboard below.
 Kid Rock says, “F*ck the bacon!” |
Robert James Ritchie, better known as the musician Kid Rock, was not present for the plea. His attorney, Darryl Cohen, waived an arraignment hearing and entered the plea on Ritchie’s behalf in DeKalb County State Court, according to Cohen’s office.
Ritchie and five members of his entourage were arrested October 21st on a misdemeanor charge of simple battery. The charges stem from a fight at a a metro-Atlanta Waffle House, where they had stopped following his performance at The Tabernacle.
Officials say a fight broke out after another customer recognized a woman in Kid Rock’s party and exchanged words with her, prompting Ritchie to exchange words, too.
What the heck is Kid Rock doing going to the Waffle House after a concert? You know that a million fans are probably following his every move as is, much less after a concert he just rocked! But I guess he’s just keeping it real. Once gutter, always gutter. And I fully mean that as a complement.
The rest of the fight was not covered by the Associated Press, but I received the details from a trusted source, the short-order cook working the graveyard shift. This is how he describes the event:
“Man, you should’ve seen it. They was yellin’ about this and that. One lady said that Kid Rock was her man. The other lady said something like, “you ain’t nothin’ but a Coyote Ugly moment waiting to happen. No wonder he took you to Waffle House, because it reminds him of your a$$!” Then the lady got all up in the other girl’s face, and they go at it. Meanwhile, Kid is just sitting there, enjoying the two womens fightin’ over him. But then one girl said something about how Tommy Lee has a bigger drumstick, and that set Kid off. Kid got up and ordered the two of them to settle it the only way 2 women should…in a good ole oil wrestlin’ match. And lucky for them, we had buckets of Crisco in the back.”
Wow, are there actually any winners after a scene like this one below???
