I just sacrificed my car and my body to save a woman working the drive through from getting a "Fire in the hole" What are some of your crazy drive through stories Reddit?
So I'm at McDonalds minding my own business in the drive through and I hear the kids infront of me say something about "fire in the hole". I see the kids get their order, 4 drinks.... They pull out of the parking lot and all was well, or so I thought.
I'm just about to get to the window to get my food when I hear a car pulling around going fast enough to make tires screech, what do you know, its the kids who were in front of me. I pulled my car up to the drive through window as quickly as possible but forgot to roll up my passenger window effectively leaving my car the new fire in the hole target. Needless to say a drink flew into my car, exploded everywhere and three more hit the outside of my car.
They floored it and started taking off, what they didn't anticipate was me following them. Unfortunately I was only able to get the first two license plate numbers (6E-----) before they blew two red lights in a row and were speeding in excess of 70 MPH on surface streets.
However I did return to the McDonalds where they informed me that the first thing tomorrow morning they're going to be doing is reviewing the drive through footage to get their license plate. I was given a refund for my meal because they felt bad for my car/me getting soaked in soda and also gave me the store owner's phone number to contact in the morning.
TL,DR: Sacrifice your car/body to save the person working drive through and get a free meal!!
