Yeah, I'll bet it was a fun day at work for those Popeyes employees in the 2nd video... LOL at the lady arguing with a recorded message on the drive thru... Also, love the totally predictable news cliches in both of those videos: "It has customers clucking..." "It has customers crying fowl..." Wow, didn't see either one of those coming...
What's funny is that I headed over to the Popeye's that night and man, there were like 40 people in the store and they looked angry. No way was I going to wait the probable hour or two for some Popeye's. It's just too expensive outside of Texas. I remember having the Leg and Thigh Tuesday special every week for $0.89 Is that still going on?
YOU TRYING TO TELL ME I CAN'T FEED MY KIDS!!!!????!!!! Oh man that guy in the suit is gonna be pissed he was in that segement.
I know one of the owners of that Popeyes and this is the first I've heard of this story. They never honor national advertizing specials and have signs up saying so.
I googled 13 WHAM and supposed to be in Rochester which is 38% AA so they might not have been biased on showing only black people. The white people probably just said "Oh no chicken? OK thanks!" not good TV. That anchorwoman was hawt though.
I beat ya to it! I do think it deserves its own thread though. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=4443423&postcount=39
Is it that good? I only do fried chicken 2 or 3 times a year and it's always KFC. I used to eat Hartz back when I was in high school and it was pretty good too. I don't think I've ever had Popeyes.
It's kind of stupid to run a one day only promotion and then run out of chicken, that's probably the dumbest thing a company can do. I'm Asian, and I'd probably get out of the car and start throwing bricks through the windows if this happened to me. I don't eat fried chicken that often, but when I have my mind set on Popeyes, I'm a heat seeking missile.
