A burrito is not a sandwich.
TheStar.com : Toronto area hoofers set Guinness record with help from Rockettes.That's the culinary ruling of a Worcester judge, ending, for now, a food fight between Panera Bread Co. and Qdoba Mexican Grill.
In issuing his decision, which blocks Panera Bread's attempts to keep the burrito maker off its turf, Worcester Superior Court Judge Jeffrey A. Locke relied on testimony from Cambridge chef Chris Schlesinger and a former high-ranking USDA official, not to mention the Webster's Third New International Dictionary.
After five minutes of non-stop kicking, Corey Low from the Guinness organization pronounced himself satisfied and declared that Toronto now held the record for the Longest Line of Dancers, previously set by a group of 1,150 from Stein, Germany, in 2004.
Upon arrival at Union Station this morning the line ups to get downstairs from track 3 were alot busier that usual as one of the stairwells was blocked off by yellow caution tape and a guard was also posted at the top. Now this is unusual although not unprecedented as there have been frequent repairs to the escalator for this particular stairwell in the past year.
As it turns out this was a very unusual day at Union Station. I did happen to have my camera this morning but I would have felt like an idiot taking pictures while EMS staff were taking care of the injured. I wouldn't be surprised if this was due to an escalator malfunction because this particular one always sounded like it was grinding metal especially when there were a ton of people on it. I can only imagine when the first lawsuit is filed. My guess is by early next week. Care to join the pool? Leave a comment with your guess.
