It’s Oprah’s World, We Just Riot Over Chicken In It

4:40 PM EDT on May 6, 2009

Oprah decided to give out coupons for free grilled chicken at KFC, because if there's one thing that Oprah understands it's a healthy diet. She thought, "let me see if I can do what I have done for books to America's stomachs: make them huge!" But now her plan to murder us has backfired! There is no chicken! Just chicken riots! Gawker reports:

Reports are pouring in from the scene of the melee:

"I just returned from my lunch break hoping to use the attached coupon to score some free KFC grilled chicken at the mid town location 47 E. 42nd Street. Well I guess around 200 people also had the same idea with coupons in hand.

When I finally gave up (after 30 minutes of aguing with other customers) a small RIOT started going on outside the store with people screaming at the manager while he wont let them use their free KFC coupons (issued by OPRAH)"

Now imagine the rioters were white.

Between this and the Popeye's fiasco, I think it's safe to say that Fast Food Chicken riots are having the Best Week Ever?!
