Florida Man Calmly Enjoys His Grits As Jacksonville Waffle House Fight Erupts Behind Him

Here’s a Waffle House fight video that’s not really about the fight. It’s about the guy who just doesn’t care. This man is a true Waffle House OG. He just smiles as a fight breaks out behind him at a Jacksonville Waffle House. Dude just gonna enjoy his grits. And is that the 2 pork chop side? I think this guy is ordering off the menu. And who is yelling for security? Does Waffle House have security? I thought the employees were in charge of the fights?

And a word of caution if you’re at work or the kids are nearby – turn down the sound. There’s a lot of strong language. I mean, it’s a Waffle House fight. That’s part of the deal.

How many Splendas you need my guy? He’s got like 8 packets.

As far as Waffle House fight go, this one is pretty tame. Jacksonville Waffle House seems pretty calm compared to some of the others. I’ve watched this video a few times and also noticed that no one leaves. The people getting thrown out do, but it’s not like people are rushing the exit.

I’d love to meet this guy and shake his hand.

You go, Florida Man!

Which is more important, the scattered, smothered, chunked, and topped, or fools getting rowdy?

“Does Waffle House have security?”

Anyone that’s been to a WH and seen some of the waitresses knows the answer to that.

We go to Waffle House occasionally.....always armed to the teeth though.

This guy is serious about his grits!

They don't have Waffle Houses up here in the Northeast but when I go down South, I do like my Waffle Houses. I think they have some of the very best breakfast food on the planet, cooked Southern style, even as good as your grandmother in Alabama made it. The coffee is not bad either.

I find the staff very friendly thought they do like to get you in and get you out because so many people behind you are waiting for a table.

When you order you food, they have a funny system where the waitress goes to stand on a specific tile on the floor near where the kitchen cooks are and she screams out the order in some kind of Waffle House special code. Somehow they always get your order correct and within minutes, hot, steaming, delicious food gets brought to your table. Don't forget to ask for hot sauce if you don't see it already on your table.

And on the jukebox are some Waffle House specific songs!

I am not kidding about that either.

None in Reno. Dang it! But there is a Cracker barrel being built. 😁👍

He laughs like “yeah, this happens all the time here....”

Special Lady making coffee at the waffle house is one of my favorites. You want to get treated well, play that song.

[Bon of Babble]

Because for him this is normal day-to-day activity.

Article is a rip! Especially all the posts and videos below the lead story.

This is a man with proper respect for grits. (Unless he put Slenda on them ?!?!?)

[V_TWIN]

As you go west there fewer and fewer of them......looks like the most westerly one is in Arizona.

As far as cracker barrel......those are two TOTALLY different experiences.

For my money I’ll take WH evtime.

OBTW this story is in my town.......I suspect its either on the west or north side.....more than likely.

If you are from the north and have never eaten at a Waffle House, you are missing a treat! The food is delicious and the waitresses are something else. The customers can be a bit interesting at times. Especially at 2:00 on Saturday and Sunday morning. Always tip well. These gals put up with a lot but they will get those eggs, grits, bacon, and pancakes on your table piping hot and in record time.

Yeah, no way I’m in a Waffle House after midnight unarmed. And if that much crap is going down, I’m making sure a) hardware is handy and b) I’m not in a LoF.

[TChad]

Priorities.

Food comes first.

One guy’s comment was: “I came to work today to scramble some eggs and whoop some ass, and we’re all out of eggs.”

Why don’t any of those videos play for me when I click on them?
