Burger King not first to break windows: It’s a trend

I suppose it’s like ‘shouting, “Fire!” in a crowded theater,’ but it’s hard not to laugh a little at the story of Burger King workers busting out the windows of their own restaurant in response to a prank call. The employees were reportedly told that their restaurant was pressurized and could explode. (Language warning.) Must have been some really angry whoppers!

Doing a little research, it appears to be a recent trend. Here’s another similar prank. If you can find an example from several years ago, please leave a comment with the link.

Here’s a different one in Arizona from last September. A prankster convinced an Econo Lodge worker to bust out a window in order to turn off (a false alarm) fire alarm.
