It would be the most simple and fair solution. Which means it's guaranteed to not happen!


I was hungry for chick fi a yesterday, and stopped on the way back from visiting my little buddy in the Pediatric ICU in Gainseville. Right before I got up to the drive thru window, a hose blew in my car and antifreeze spilled everywhere, steam pouring from the hood. I couldnt wait to pick up the spicy chicken sammich, so I pulled around to the parking lot and shut my car off. While a friend helped me fix the car, the owner of the G-ville Chick Fil - A was pretty awesome, gave me a free meal and made sure everything was alright with my car. It was pretty cool, he seems to be a great guy.
Nice story..Hope your buddy is doing well..

Had a similar thing happen couple years ago on way to Durham, the intake manifold blew fortunately near an exit and McDonalds..Pulled into their lot with steam and water flying everywhere...the mgr called the cops and said a terrorist tried to blow up his joint.....
Actually a Good Samaritan came along and lead me to a local garage and left the car and was fixed next day...still have the guys name and number..
