Waffle House fracas-victim has the perfect name for the story:

You don't know who to believe, do you? It's entirely possible that Rock's posse decided to blow off some steam and show how important they were by beating up some guy, but this is the Waffle House we're talking about. Ever been to a Waffle House in the early morning? It can be the drunkenest place in the whole wide wonderful world. If I remember Waffle House correctly, everything is made out of one continuous piece of plastic, so they can hose it down nightly. After telling the folks to scat, that is. Now git, you hear? Git! I tried to order something without grits once. It was like asking for that salsa they make in Noo York City. It got real quiet and people stared.
