We used to go to the buffet after practice. My teammates and I would be so hungry we could do three or four plates. We’d usually get there around 4, and while we were there they’d transition from lunch to dinner, which had different food and was more expensive, but we’d paid for lunch.
It was technically allowed, but because we were doing it consistently, and just eating so much, the manager came up to our table to have a talk with us about it. Didn’t tell us to stop, but just tried to shame us. He said “I know what you’re doing”. We weren’t doing it on purpose, we just came in hungry when practice ended.
Damn that’s a shame. My team would also do this like once a month and the buffet we went to absolutely loved us. They would keep the party room open for us and prepare extra food the night before. Hell the owners came to some of the bigger meets too when they could.
Then someone drove a semi truck through the front of the building (nobody was hurt, it was overnight) and they never reopened :(
I kinda get it, there was a pretty big difference between the lunch and dinner menu. The lunch was typical Chinese buffet, dinner had shrimp and crab legs and such. We just told him we’ll stay away from the crab legs if we paid for lunch.
