Hold the ketchup: Woman loses her cool in a drive-thru

Itâs always irritating when you order food and it comes out wrong. But hey, everyone makes mistakes, and taking it out on workers does nobody any good. A calm exchange for the right item is the best way to go, but a 20-year-old woman in Tennessee had other ideas. After ordering food at McDonaldâs, the woman requested jelly and was accidentally handed a packet of ketchup instead. Itâs an easy mistake to make, but this woman wouldnât take it lying down. After verbally unloading on the drive-thru worker, she pulled out a gun and begin threatening them for messing up her order! Needless to say, she got the jelly she wanted along with some serious police attention. Not only did she threaten employees with a gun, but in Tennessee itâs illegal for 20-year-olds to own one. Who knew the lies would âketchupâ with her?

She should have saved the ketchup for some fries. McDonaldâs fries are the gold standard!
