You may have heard of this one. A Hooters' Restaurant in Panama City, Florida was running an internal promotion where the waitress who sold the most beer during a specific time period wins a Toyota! (Or something that sounds like that!) 26 year old Jodee Berry had been working at the restaurant for less than a year when she won the contest! She was blindfolded and led to the restaurant parking lot. When the blindfold was removed, Berry wasn't looking at a new car, but a Yoda doll. Berry said she looked beyond the $40 toy, hoping to see the car driving around the corner. Blair, she said, was inside the restaurant laughing. But she wasn't.
Berry quit the restaurant a week later. She sued Gulf Coast Wings, owners of the restaurant, alleging breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation. She is seeking as compensation, the cost of a new Toyota -- the car.
