I've been to Friends several times. It was a pretty cool little place until this incident happened.

Murder/cannibalism does tend to ruin the ambiance of a place.

Adjective Bird Whiskey: Murder/cannibalism does tend to ruin the ambiance of a place.

It's been shut down, ever since then. They've been waiting for this asshole to go on trial for almost three years now. I heard it might reopen eventually.

4 posts and no irony police yet? Is that a new record?

Wow, that's 5 minutes from my house. How did I miss that happening?

I remember it. They had a big police standoff for a couple of hours. I was watching it on tv live. Finally Merriit just walked out and sat down on the sidewalk. KPD *tackled* his ass. I mean, he got a big-time pavement shampoo.

Did you ever go there?

This was just after KPD applied the parking lot to his face.

Wow, this all happened before I moved here, but that's really messed up. Glad that's on the other side of the county from me though.

Interestingly enough, Google says Halls, TN is on the other side of the state, near Dyersburg, but another article had it listed on Maynardville Highway, and of course there's the note about Knox County SWAT being involved.

Yeah, there is a "Halls" out there. This is "Halls Crossroads" which is just north of the Knoxville / Fountain City area.

So, no one told you life would be this way,
you're jobs a joke, you're broke,
Tony's DOAaaaaaaaa,
seems like there always shooting some guy in here,
couldn't it be like other bars where guys just lose an ear?

Nope. I've heard of the place, though. I live in Fountain City, so we usually bar hop in the other direction.

It's been there for years, and I only 'discovered' it last fall. I've been wearing it out on Sunday afeternoons ever since.

Then we've probably had a beer together without knowing it.

I mix together about 2 parts of the 'mild' and 1 part habanero. And it still makes my eyes water.

Well yeah! If you think you're so much better than everyone how would handle it Mr. high and mighty subby?

To be fair, it was a sports bar after all.
 
2011-03-23 12:24:09 PM
Maybe if they had better appetizers on the menu, this sort of thing wouldn't happen so much.

This is almost as farked up as the whackjob that decapitated a fellow passenger on a Greyhound bus in Canada.

At least this guys was just trying to get a beer.
 
2011-03-23 12:26:29 PM
In his defense, (expletive) beer IS pretty farking good.
 
2011-03-23 12:27:16 PM
i'll be there for him
 
2011-03-23 12:27:51 PM
I guess they will have to pull the manwich off the menu
ocanada.com.au

/or at least add liver and fava beans
 
2011-03-23 12:28:51 PM
Just goes to show, you should never get between a TF'er and his beer.
 
2011-03-23 12:30:42 PM
damn, someone should have just lent him the money for a beer. i think the problem is that he didn't announce his intentions.

"i'm gonna shoot this dude and eat his heart if i don't get a beer"

i'd buy him one.
 
2011-03-23 12:31:36 PM
Wow. Just wow. This shiat really happens.

hype alert.
he didn't try to eat the person's heart, only some other flesh.

in other words, a slow wednesday night.

They didn't have the heart to refuse him...

I don't get what the national obsession with beer even is. It's a farking drink, it doesn't even taste nice (If it did you'd be able to drink it much more quickly), so buy something you like the taste of more. If you want to get drunk quick, there's better methods.

Seems like it's going to be the next big thing.

Maybe, just maybe, everybody's goal isn't to get drunk quick. I enjoy a mild buzz, and I actually like the taste of Guinness and Sam Adams.

Mmmmmmmm, tasty tasty courage....
 
2011-03-23 12:50:32 PM
all these hearty zingers based on the headline alone and as someone's already pointed out, he merely ate but some flesh.

*sniff

/don't people know how to cannibalize anymore?
//is it truly a lost art?
