In St. Louis, Missouri, two men entered a convenience store with the intention of robbing it. They made their intention known to the clerk—but they had no weapons. The clerk told them that if they didn’t leave the store he would call the police.
Frightened that their robbery wasn’t working out like the ones on television, the two crooks made a run for it. But one of the robber wannabes decided he was going to steal something—so he grabbed a hot dog off the rotisserie and quickly shoved the whole thing in his mouth.
A few steps outside the convenience store, the hot-dog thief collapsed—he was choking on the frankfurter. Faced with this beautiful case of poetic justice—it takes a weenie to stop a weenie—the other man did the only honorable thing a dumb criminal can do. He ran like hell, leaving his partner gasping in the parking lot.
