TROY, Mich. - Some drive-through customers at a Burger King are getting more with their meals than they expected.

Police in the north Detroit suburb are looking for someone who is using a device to broadcast on the same frequency as a Burger King drive-through speaker, The Detroit News reported Thursday.

The person has interrupted business transactions three times, most recently Tuesday, with obscene remarks to startled customers.

When the 41-year-old manager went outside to apologize to customers and look for the source of the mischief, a voice boomed out of the outdoor speaker: "There's nothing you or the police can do about this, so get ... back inside and take your goons with you," Troy Police Lt. Gerry Scherlinck said.

3. Olbermann reported on this a few days ago

When someone ordered a Whopper, the response came back something like, "No Whoppers for you. You're fat enough already."

I don't know if this was actually one of the reported incidents or just one of the writer's segues, but I can just picture the look on a customer's face if they heard anything other than "Would you like fries with that?"

(Well, I thought it was funny... :shrug: )
