Drunk Florida Woman Tries Ordering Baconator at Popeyes Before Being Arrested
FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA – A bizarre late-night incident at a Popeyes drive-thru left witnesses stunned after a visibly intoxicated woman tried to order a meal that didn’t even exist on the menu.
The Unusual Drive-Thru Encounter
The viral video, recorded by a man waiting in his car, shows the woman standing on foot at the Popeyes drive-thru window. Normally reserved for cars, the scene quickly raised questions.
When the driver asked her what she was doing, the woman casually explained she was just trying to get her order fixed. That order? A Baconator, a burger famously sold at Wendy’s — not Popeyes.
To add to the awkwardness, she gave the man recording an impromptu fist bump, seemingly unaware of the growing confusion around her behavior.
Clearly Intoxicated
Viewers quickly noticed signs of intoxication. She was not only walking where vehicles belong but also insisting on ordering a sandwich unavailable at that chain.
Police eventually arrived on the scene. For a brief moment, the woman appeared to think the officers were there to assist her rather than remove her. Commenters later joked, “The police showed up… Not the ‘bacon’ator she wanted though.”
The Uber Ride Twist
According to Popeyes staff, the woman hadn’t walked there after all. She had arrived in an Uber, but when the driver refused to wait in the long line, she decided to get out and place her order on foot instead. Witnesses pointed out she could have easily gone inside the restaurant to order, but she chose the drive-thru lane instead.
Escorted Away by Police
Officers eventually escorted her away, ending the scene. As things returned to normal, the man recording used the opportunity to ask if his own order was ready, laughing about the unusual series of events.
The strange encounter left social media buzzing, with many calling it both ridiculous and a cautionary tale about public intoxication.
