Dan and I were in the Bronx today over at Gateway Plaza and we saw the most bizarre thing – Applebee’s had FAKE customers sitting at the tables by the window…
That’s right, they took their prime real estate – the window seats – and put a bunch of mannequins in chairs sitting at tables “having a good time”. It was just bizarre. Here is a close up of three of the Applebee’s “customers”…
That’s just sorta sad, and kinda disturbing/freaky…
In this economy, I’d believe anything! Coincidentally, I just read a brief blurb in the 8/13/12 Time Magazine issue also about Applebees selling mannequins to put at your desk chair to fake out your boss so you could sneak out to go to Applebees!
Desperate times-desperate measures!
