We can all agree that pancakes are a delicious treat. Have them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner—it’s always a good time for a flapjack. But until recently, people generally consumed them inside their homes or in a restaurant. A Florida man recently decided that just wasn’t going to cut it anymore, so he wandered out to a busy intersection in his pajamas, set down a TV table, a proceeded to eat several pancakes in the middle of the road.
Some concerned, breakfast-hating commuters called 911. “There’s a gentlemen sitting in the middle of the road with a folding table eating. Eating. Just sitting in the middle of road eating with a chair and a folding table,” a man told a dispatcher, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Local 10 News reports videos of the stunt were posted to Facebook, where the pancake-eating innovator was identified as 21-year-old Kiaron Thomas.
Lakeland police officers determined Thomas lived just 100 yards from the site of the pancake disruption. When they interviewed him at his home, Thomas reportedly confessed to the prank. As a result he was charged with obstruction in the roadway and disrupting the free flow of traffic.
