Most all you can eat places can ban customers who excessively gorge. They dont usually have to because most people do not do this kind of thing.

We found out that one of the casinos in Biloxi had all-you-can-eat raw oyster plates at the buffet but you had to know where to look for them since they were in a refrigerated drawer underneath the serving stations. Boy did we feast from then on.

I can understand this. As a restaurant owner would you rather have one (unjustifiably) pissed customer or a roomful.

There was a Chinese place in South Georgia which I ate at some times. I would get a box and fill it up and eat on it for a couple of days. Really good.

One day I noticed a sign that you must be able to close the lid on the box. Really somebody was getting ridiculous. To pile it that high was clearly out of line.

My mom and dad told a story about an all-you-can eat place that had a turnstile at the cash register presumably to reconcile the customer count with register receipts.

Since not all customers could fit through the turnstile, they also had a cattle gate the cashier would open to let the oversized customers in.

My parents said the turnstiles counted the customers the restaurant made money on while the cattle gates counted customers the restaurant lost money on.

I’ll repeat this in case anyone followed Gulf Coast area wrestling in the 60s and remember Billy & Bad Boy Hines.

A sportswriter for a Jacksonville Fl newspaper did a story in the 80s about the southern circuit wrestlers in the old days. He told of seeing the Hines Bros. in a small country restaurant that had all-you-can-eat fried catfish buffet.

Billy & Bad Boy loaded up two plates apiece, ate all the catfish and kept going back for more. They cleaned the buffet out. Wrestlers back then who did the small town/ rural circuits were not paid a lot and worked hard for what they did get. The opportunity to fill up on cheap catfish was too tempting to pass up.

stupid marketing to say “All you can eat” then not be happy when a person does just that.

I remember reading somewhere that lumberjacks use 4,000 calories a day.

And the fasting regimen is not a bad idea at all.

It’s the greed and the taking advantage that are kind of repelling. A place where my parents used to go had trouble with Alaskan king crab legs. They’re expensive and they don’t have much in them, so you can bankrupt a place in no time. I think they stopped that item eventually.

Dumb!

They should have used him in some ads, instead.
