I read
this news in the Herald today and I had a good laugh. Local seafood restaurant Captain Bob's mascot, Mr. Shrimp's head has been stolen! It's a bit mean to laugh at this, especially at restaurant's loss, since we just closed ours...but I promise its not out of spite. I love going to Captain Bob's! They have good shrimp, and even though I may be allergic to shrimp, I still go! I like their seafood specials! So anyways, they would usually have Mr. Shrimp stand outside the restaurant with a stereo playing loud music trying to lure customers with silly dancing and waves. I tried to find a picture of Mr. Shrimp, but the following picture was the closest I could find.
So imagine, something like this guy, waving you down from a corner with a goofy dance. Some local teens must be having a real kick holding poor Mr. Shrimp's head hostage. I sure will miss seeing Mr. Shrimp when I pass by either restaurant and I hope who ever stole his head may feel guilty enough to atleast leave it at the restaurant's front door or something! $2,000 is a lot of money for replacing a shrimp's head and that for sure is no laughing matter. If not, well you suck loser shrimp head theives!
