We’ve all had one of these moments in our lives. It’s pay day, you’re out with your crew, pounding drinks, feasting like royalty, then suddenly, BOOM – hit with the tab and it’s a slight bit more than you budgeted for. Naturally, your inclination is to just run.
That’s just human nature. Totally normal – happens all the time. Well, dine-and-dashers, rejoice – we got a real homeboy here who has laid the groundwork for a genius escape plan!
Terry Peck, 33, allegedly devoured two lobsters, 17 oyster shooters, a baby octopus, and several beers at Main Beach’s Omeros Bros Restaurant before making his getaway.
Ho-ly shit. That is an excessive amount of food. That is more seafood than any man should consume in a single day. Much less, drinking beer with it, too! Do we know for a fact that the baby octopus was ordered off the menu? Or, did he just, like, find it on the beach and eat it?
The staff from Main Beach restaurant took off in hot pursuit.
Yeah, so don’t fuck with Omeros Bros Restaurant. They won’t just let you get away with it.
Peck, who goes by the name 2pec, ran onto the beach and into the surf, and efforts to cajole him back to shore were unsuccessful.
Two police jumped on a lifeguard’s jet ski and arrested him in the ocean.
2pec – solid rap name – had the right idea, but this one’s hard to execute. By running into the ocean, you get the hell out of dodge, but there’s that whole breathing thing that you suddenly have to worry about. Genius idea, but just a shade impractical.
Also, you’ll have to watch the video to know that he was arrested in the nude. So, I’m assuming he ditched his clothes in an effort to throw off the police. Great idea, too, if you ask me. The police are going to see his shirt and pants floating in the surf and run towards them. But, what they won’t know is that Peck’s bare ass is miles away.
How about these police, though? Seems a bit aggressive to just arrest the man in the ocean. Like, at least pull him onto dry land. But, then again, 2pec, if you don’t want the fight to end in the ocean, don’t take the fight to the ocean.
“There was oyster shell in the oyster [shot] and he said he was going to take off the bill,” Peck said outside court.
“They should be apologising to me for the shell … [and] the overpriced food.”
Peck said he had only left the restaurant to help a friend who was he said was giving birth on the beach.
He said he was arrested before finding her.
The restaurant’s assistant manager Mark Hunnybun said their suspicions were raised when Peck continued ordering food and drinks after first arriving at 1:00pm on Sunday.
He allegedly did the runner when he learnt how much the bill was.
Classic excuse. Classic deflection. This guy really knows his stuff – this ain’t 2pec’s first rodeo. Not only
I bet the restaurant owner feels really stupid and I wouldn’t be surprised if 2pec decides to press charges.
The seafood restaurant worker refuted claims by Peck that the lobster was overcooked.
“We cook our lobsters perfectly here — we pride ourselves on cooking our lobsters perfectly,” Mr Hunnybun said.
Am I the only one sensing a bit of snark here? Of all the things that just happened, you have to make sure the public knows your lobsters are fucking fire. But, you know what, these restaurant people are savvy businessmen. Gotta plug where you can plug, if you know what I mean. You’re on the news, might as well chime in about how awesome the food is at your restaurant.
Just goes to show you, folks. People will go to great lengths to consume good seafood.
