No Soup For You: Man Upset After Restaurant Runs out of Soup

By The Associated Press

MANSFIELD, Texas
— Apr 23, 2016,

A Texas lawyer upset that he wasn't provided a cup of soup during a recent meal has notified a restaurant owner that he'll sue if not reimbursed the $2.25 for the soup.

Dwain Downing also is seeking $250 in attorney fees for the time spent drafting a letter sent to Benji Arslanovski, who operates Our Place Restaurant in the Fort Worth suburb of Mansfield.

Downing says the soup was listed on the menu as part of a Saturday special. He says the restaurant offered no discount or substitution when it ran out.

The lawyer argued the menu amounts to a contract with the customer and Arslanovski violated the terms of the contract.

But the restaurateur says the menu makes clear the soup comes with a meal "while supplies last."

Is this a liberal problem, a conservative problem, a capitalism problem, or what?

Are we supposed to blame it on Obama, or on Trump?

Serve him some soup....but make it EXTRA special...if ya know what I mean.....Never piss off the cook.

Nope just laugh....


Oh wait....



What country was The Soup Nazi from on Seinfeld ?
Somebody Google!

" Secret is in the sause"
(Fried Green Tomatoes)

the sellsment always showing that the offerer have rights to anounce the customer what they have what they don't have and also the customer have no rights to force the offerer to do so what they can't offering......or sellers>.< whatever LOL~~~~~~~

True.
The owner of the restaurant is NOT in breech of contract.
It is written on the menu, " While supplies last " & it is served as a course (part of) a meal. not a meal

then?.....Ha.....something it's more clearly now right? or some one just need some kind of media effect to supporting something whatever HeeeeeHaaaaa~~~~~

This sounds to me like a lawyer isn't getting his name out there and drumming up business. So he will invent some business for himself..

I can see the billboards now...

Recycled soup, comin' right up.


Hell... I live close enough,
I may deliver it myself, on
my next trip to Waco.



I HATE driving through mansfield.

HeeeeHaaaaa~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

always obarrys fault...

This is a job for Vladimir Putin

Is the economy so bad this is what lawyers have to do in order to generate billable hours?

I wonder if he went into the restaurant planning on spilling it on his lap and then claiming 3rd degree burns, and this is Plan B.

$250 for a letter WTF

At least bank robbers have the decency to wear a mask

Shows how bad the economy is...Lawyers can't find jobs either so frivolous lawsuits go up

These frivolous lawsuits are what have ruined a lot of things in our society, and have driven up the cost of not only medicine, but just about every product that we purchase.

Someone needs to start bringing lawsuits against these lawyers for wasting money and the time of the judicial system!

If I didn't know better, I'd say that this lawyer works in the law office of Dewey, Shaftem and Howe.

Neither, it's a pest problem... cockroaches. What do you call 100 million dead lawyers????
A good start. Hee hee.
