Tennessee man sues Popeyes Chicken over 'wasted time,' no chicken sandwich


EAST RIDGE, Tenn. (WTVC) — An East Ridge man has filed a civil summons in Hamilton County General Sessions court against Popeyes Chicken because he was not happy about his repeated trips to the fast food restaurant, only to find they were out of their new crispy chicken sandwich.

The shortages seem to be going on across the country, as the popularity of the new menu item surges following a social media battle with Chick-Fil-A, a competitor that sells their own version of a crispy chicken sandwich.

"Y'all. We love that you love The Sandwich. Unfortunately we're sold out (for now)," Popeyes tweeted.
The man filing the summons, Craig Barr, says he is suing for "false advertising, deceptive business practices by entity to public. Countless time wasted driving to and from Popeyes. No chicken sandwich. Was told to come back this day- still no sandwich."

Barr says he answered a "black list" Craigslist ad, promising a Popeyes worker who worked the fryer would "stash" the sandwiches in the back, and sell them to customers who paid $24.

Barr says the alleged employee took his money, but never delivered the fried goods.

Chattanooga Police say they don't know of any reports of problems at local Popeyes restaurants. The ad now appears to be taken down.

Barr is asking for $5,000 and was assigned an October 28 court date.

NewsChannel 9 reached out to Popeyes for a response.

A spokesperson told us they don't comment on threatened litigation.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

I came here to ask the same question lmfao. I feel like he’s probably black because of the fried chicken sandwich aspect but suing is more of a white person thing. Black people upset over the lines and lack of fried chicken were typically rioting inside Popeyes and beating the employees/other customers.

Goddamn, it’s Idiocracy come to real life.

Edit: think I found Craig Barr on FB and yes he’s white.

How much you want to bet this chicken sandwich is just leftover boneless chicken on a bun? Using leftover stock. I never understood why people freak out over promotional food items.

Suing is pretty equal opportunity nowadays. Have you ever seen the amount of law firm billboard ads strewn about Detroit? They market it as a form of gibs.

I'd be very surprised if he's not black. It's mostly Niggers and other likewise subhumans who get obsessed with trivial pleasures like fried chicken because it stimulates a vestigial part of their primitive jungle brains.

The dude should just buy some buns and mayo at the grocery store, order some chicken from Popeyes and assemble his own chicken sandwich. He could even get some of the dipping sauces from there too. Sure, it’s probably not the exact same thing, but this isn’t worth a lawsuit.

Godspeed to this fellow, never fuck with a man’s fried chicken

As opposed to your intellectual pursuits like popping pills and jerking off over some jailed wanker?

I don't "pop pills", I take medication.

It is literally an oversized Popeyes chicken tender on a bun, with some pickles. Hot sauce if you pick the spicy option.

Just go to Chick-Fil-A idiot.

If you're eating at Popeyes your time is probably very, very cheap.
