Just like Romeo and Juliet, this pig ran away from its home for love and it ended in tragedy.
The Associated Press reports that a black potbellied pig from Pennsylvania waited patiently for employees to open a Burger King early Thursday morning.
It turned out to be an unrequited love and the pig was denied service. It’s still alive, though, so that’s cool. The dining establishment was offering a 2-for-$4 bacon, egg and cheese croissant special, so that betrayal may have prompted the escapee’s grand romantic gesture.
Employee JJ Nichols told Pittsburgh Action News that he tried to feed the pig bacon, but was scolded by his astute manager. The pig ended up munching on some hash browns from a sympathetic customer.
Things got ugly when the pig started blocking the drive-thru and bit a customer’s foot, presumably oinking a desperate call of, “Burger King! What do I have to do to get you to notice me?” State police showed up to wrangle the burger enthusiast, and eventually the pig’s owner showed up to bring the runaway home.
If Burger King can’t open its heart to love, it doesn’t deserve this pig. Maybe Taco Bell is a better match.
