I was at work tonight and it was prolly busier'n it was on Labor Day. Outta the blue I said (out loud) "Yanno, if deer season is all about returning to their basic roots of foraging in the wild an livin off the land, Why in the hell do they insist on eating at a fast food place?" Deer hunters in 1806 or even 1906 didnt stop atta fast food place for a sandwich. Heck no! They ate what they hunted. Deer camp normally consists of an old one room cabin with bout three cots an bouta dozen hunters and sometimes a kid or two thrown in. If they are lucky, an old wood stove or a campfire and a pot of beans and some coffee like substance. Some reason I dont think its like that anymore. I was outside on break an seen a steady line of them really expensice travel trailers bein pulled by expensive trucks carrying four-wheelers. What the heck happened to "Roughing" it? Oh wait! They actually havta get out on foot and climb a tree and sit still, till they havta go pee. That must really be hard work. Then if they actually shoot sumthin (lets hope its notta horse) Load it up on their four-wheeler an haul it back to camp. All the while whoopin an hollerin all the way. Oh yeah, Lets shoot off a few more rounds in victory.
To me, Fast food should sumthin hit on the road at 75 miles an hour.

Job security hb.
Something I wonder about modern hunters...doesn't the 4 wheelers scare the deer off? I would think a real hunter would walk in...if he gets one, walk back to truck and get the 4 wheeler to carry the deer, but I doubt most do that.
You were at work at night, so I assume the hunters were finished hunting for the day and the ones eating were the ones that didn't get a deer.

We used to have hundreds PROBABLY thousands of hunters that would come through Wendy's drive thru and inside the lobby when I worked there....the whole 6 years I was employed there! I think that opening weekend of deer season was one of our biggest sales times! and another big one was THANKSGIVING when people are suppose to be eating turkey they are eating Triple Cheeseburgers! REALLY our biggest was Memorial Weekend when the lake travels started BUT it sure seemed like it was Opening Weekend and Thanksgiving because we had just as much business! CRAZINESS!!!
