Burger King Gives Baby the Boot for Going Barefoot

Published on

A six-month-old girl displayed a shameful disregard for the rules when she entered a Burger King with — GASP! — bare feet.  The St. Louis restaurant, which obviously takes its “no shoes, no service” policy seriously, asked the little barefooted hellion and her mother to leave. 

The mom tried to explain that her daughter was only six months old and does not own any shoes.  However, the Footwear Nazis showed them no mercy.

That’s right!  Show some respect for The King, young lady.  No Big Whopper for yooouuu!

Burger King has since apologized for giving the two ladies the boot, offering them a free meal, and has instituted staff retraining.

When asked for comment, the baby sniffed, “Screw that creepy King guy.  I’m going to Wendy’s next time!”
