I can appreciate rwsmith's reference to women sticking chickens in their purses at an all you can eat buffet. I had a similar experience.
Back in college a bunch of buddies and I would go to the local Holiday Inn for Friday night happy hour to play trivia against other bars, have a few beers, and eat some good "appetizers" that they only had one day a week. In reality, if you went there and bought drinks, you got a free meal. They had all the usual happy hour foods like chips, nachos, little smokies, cheese, soups, etc. etc. etc., but what brought us was the smoked BBQ ribs. They were simply outstanding.
One Friday night, we were having a good time, drinking beers, playing trivia, and making trips to the food bar. However, for some reason on this night, we could never seem to get many ribs anytime one of us would go up "graze". So, we were a little unhappy, to say the least.
We then started watching for ribs to be brought to the bar. When we saw the server bring up a batch we watched to see what would happen as there really wasn't very many people there that evening and we could not figure out who was eating all the ribs. About 2 tables over from us, there was a single man dressed in a 3 piece suit (no kidding). He was sitting at one of those raised round tables that has 3 bar stools around it. As soon as the server walked away from the bar, he got up, took a plate from the food bar, and loaded it up with a pile of ribs. He then walked back to his table, sat down, and ate a rib or two while sipping on a glass of beer that was about 3/4 full. We then noticed a very nice looking leather briefcase sitting on the bar stool right next to him. We couldn't believe it when we saw him open the briefcase just wide enough to dump the entire plate of steaming hot ribs into it. Over the next hour or so, we watched him do the same thing 3 more times. He finally finished his one beer, paid the server and left with his briefcase full of ribs.
So, who on the Forum wants to own up to this one?
