Sonic in Gulfport MS: "If you are smoking weed in the drive thru you WILL NOT be served"



A fast-food chain restaurant in Gulfport has a message for anyone smoking marijuana in the drive-through line.

"ATTENTION," a laminated sign reads in the window of the Sonic on 17th Street. "If you are smoking weed in the drive thru you will not be served! Please show some common courtesy and smoke and air out before pulling up to order."

Store manager Yasman Freeman said the sign was posted about two weeks ago after a patron blew smoke in the face of an underage employee.

She said in addition to the incident, employees were tired of smelling pot when taking orders.

"For health and safety of our employees and indoor patrons, please extinguish all cigarettes and other smoking products before approaching the drive-thru window.

You may be asked to pick up your order inside if we are unable to open the window due to excessive smoke, ash, or burning material."


I mean, I thought that was a no-brainer, but why not?

"Hello, can I take your order?

"Hey, man, like, I'm thinking I'd, you know, like really would love to have some really good, like, I'm kinda' hungry.

"Er, OK, sir, what is your order?

"Order? Naw, man, I didn't order yet, did I? Oooooh, you WANT me to order, huh? That's cool!

"Sir, please, can I have your order?

"What? No, man, you can't have my order! I'm really hungry and I'd like to share but, like, you know, like, don't they let you get your own food, man?


Yeah, we need those signs!

I went to one, perhaps five years ago.

The burgers had a terrible taste. The fries were soggy. Reminded me of food from my elementary school cafeteria.

I also think McDonalds is low-grade food, but at least the burgers and fries sort of taste good.
