WHAT? THAT'S PEANUTS!


The particulars are lost on me... something about a lost bag, a squabble and a lack of resolution.
The even in question led to a protest of peanuts.
The spot: Quanju restaurant in Chongqing’s Yubei district.
The protest:
Hordes of customers... a gaggle of friends... have been coming in, taking separate tables and
ordering the cheapest item on the menu: Fried Peanuts. (Hmmm. Those sound pretty good.)
They then hang around for hours on end... causing the restaurant to lose potential REAL customers and ultimately money.
After 3 nights of Peanut Protest,
the restaurant manager called the authorities.
7 of the nutters actually got arrested and went to jail for 5 days.
Apparently, the police... erm... "found" 'knives' in their cars.
Yes. In ALL of their cars. Interesting.
