Man Finds $4500 In His BoJangles Chicken Box And Returns It Like An Idiot

AOL – One area Bojangles’ customer got more than he bargained for when he had a hankering for some of the chain’s famous chicken Friday. James Minor said what happened to him at the drive-thru when he was ordering lunch at the Nine Mile Road location left a bad taste in his mouth. It all started when his order arrived and he quickly realized his chicken was cold…After waiting for a while, a worker came out and handed him a bag of food. But when he opened what he assumed would be a box of steaming hot chicken, he was taken aback.

“When I opened the box up, the BoJangles’ chicken box, there was probably close to $4,500 in cash and also SunTrust deposit slips,” he explained. He said when he saw the money he thought that he was being set up – or that someone inside the store was trying to steal money. Minor rushed inside the restaurant, asked for a manager and explained what happened.

I feel like we always hear about these stories of people just randomly finding large sums of cash and every time it ends with them turning it in. I get that there wouldn’t be a story in the first place if the people just kept all the cash, but how often do you hear stories about people getting caught after keeping $4500 in cash they in their BoJangles’ chicken box? Exactly.

So every time I see a story like this, I always take a quick moment to do a bit of self-reflection and think about what I’d do if I were in the same situation. I’ll be the first person to admit that I’m a giant bitch. If I took the full $4500, I’d constantly be checking over my back for the rest of my life terrified of someone finding out and coming to kill me. It wouldn’t necessarily be the guilt that would get to me, but it would be just like what our boy James Minor said; too afraid that this shit would be too good to be true and that someone would be setting me up. In this particular instance though, you’ve gotta be the biggest sack of shit to not at least take a grand or so for yourself. I mean, this dickheads tried serving you come cold ass chicken the first go around. Then after you return it, they accidentally serve you $4500 in cash money (Wilmer Valderrama voice) instead of chicken all together. It’s like what the late great George W. Bush once said. Fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again. You take at least a quick thousand for yourself, leave the rest on the corner and drive away as fast as possible to the nearest casino and put that thousand on black. Instead, my man returned the full $4500 and got a $100 gift card instead. What a fucked up world we live in.
