Phone Hoax Led KFC Workers To Spray Extinguisher, Disrobe

EDIT: I just listened to this and it was great, well worth my hour of time.
But I have a question, is it supposed to be cut off in the middle of him talking to the Fire Dept?

The articles I read about it said that the callers hung up when the police and fire department got on the phone.  So maybe.  Then again, the articles also said they became suspicious when the caller told them to pee on each other.  Seems weird that he would hang up when the fire department got on the line after he was bold enough to do all that other stuff.  Maybe he suddenly realized that having a restaurant and a street closed down and causing a hazmat emergency was taking things a little too far and decided to hang up.

Holy shit is that call hilarious. They didn't act even a little suspicious at any point whatsoever.

I noticed that some of the employees spell out their full names. How risky do you think it would be to call them for comment?

Okay thanks, I was thinking I may have been missing some at the end because of my computer.

I read some the comments on the news story and someone said that these guys are located in England. I wonder, can they be held responsible for this even though they are in another country?

MANCHESTER – A man was burned last night when he fell into a deep-fryer unit at a fried chicken restaurant, officials said.

The incident happened at the Kentucky Fried Chicken branch at 677 Daniel Webster Highway, officials said.

District Fire Chief Al Poulin said the 20-year-old man, whose identity wasn't available, had been cleaning an exhaust hood over the fryer.

"He slipped and fell, and he fell down into the Friolator," Poulin said.

The man suffered burns to both arms, his face and his chest, Poulin said. The severity of the burns was not known, he said. The man was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

Late last month, three employees of the same KFC were taken to a hospital for decontamination after a hoax phone call directed employees to test the eatery's fire-suppressant system.

Police continue to investigate that matter.

I can't help but wonder if those two events where somehow indirectly related....

who ever does the hiring for that particular KFC is an excellent judge of talent.

Maybe the general manager purposely hires retards just to amuse himself with.  Only this past month has he realized his mistake as his source of amusement has suddenly started backfiring.

They did it again to a Waffle House. This call is long as hell but even better than the KFC one.

I'm on Part 5 now.  This is awful.  Hilariously awful.  And really long.  Are there any newspaper articles about this one?  I searched but can't find any.

Today I ate at KFC and there was a sign on the register about how they were hiring and what qualifications applicants needed.  One of the qualifications was a "100% Yes attitude."  It seems funny to me since that's what those naked peeing girls had.  And that's why I brought up a month old post.

Nothing like blind loyalty in employees!

Anyone know when Wal*Mart or Target is going to be targeted on a grand scale beyond people*cough*rbcp*cough* calling in and singing lullabies and stuff? I wouldn't mind hearing about a pile of naked Wal*Mart employees ass naked in a fridge some where.
