Man Refuses To Pay After Sharing Food At Buffet

(AP) Being a cheapskate could get you in trouble with the law. Fulton County authorities arrested 40-year-old Dan Linscomb of Texas City, Texas, last week for refusing to pay his tab at the all-you-can-eat Iron Skillet buffet in northwest Atlanta. Officials say Linscomb ate at the buffet and let his girlfriend eat from his plate.

The restaurant charged him for two $7 meals, which he refused to pay. Linscomb was taken to the Fulton County Jail on a charge of theft of service. Fulton County Sheriff's Sgt. Nikita Hightower said Linscomb was released two days later after pleading guilty to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct.

Linscomb could not be reached for comment. Restaurant officials declined comment.

DUmba$$ of the month.   :whatever:  Two days in jail for refusing to pay an extra $7.  Idiot.

And probably posted somewhere conspicuously in the place or on the menus is a statement which tells people not to share plates in a buffet lest they be charged double.

At 7 bucks, it is probably a huge sign somewhere.

That is a hell of a deal, even if the food is only so-so (couldn't be worse than Golden Corral).

The people running the joint can't be all that bright either.  Most buffets make you pay on the way in...not out.
