When tornadoes and severe storms blasted through Mississippi and Alabama on Friday and then into North Carolina the results were devastatingly damaging and deadly.
However, for one man in Jackson, Mississippi, all he wanted to talk about was the lunch he lost. When a reporter from WAPT interviewed him about the destruction at his home, he seemed more concerned with his missing hamburger than the trees that crashed into his abode.
While eating lunch with a friend in a car in his driveway, the terrible twister struck, sucking the man’s burger right out of his hand. His fries and drink are also missing. This fast food was so fast it disappeared in the blink of an eye. He never found his AWOL meat patty.
Maybe if he’d ordered the world’s largest burger, weighing in at a hefty 210 pounds, it wouldn’t have blown away. Or if he had traveled to Waco, Texas to buy a Fat Ho burger, he may have avoided the tornado altogether. Although Texas is dealing with its own natural disaster in the form of fires moving across the state, and there was a chance he could encounter a fire tornado for that chargrilled effect.
