An 84-year-old Waffle House customer is suing the chain after becoming “distracted’ by window signage for its limited-edition Strawberry Shortcake Waffle and stumbling over an “abnormally high” curb, smacking face-first into the concrete pavement, according to federal court filings reviewed by The Independent.
“While navigating the parking lot and stepping up the abnormally high curb, Plaintiff Edward Bowlds' attention was distracted by the advertisements, and he unknowingly tripped and fell over the curb which resulted in severe and permanent injuries,” the complaint states.
