I was at the root beer stand one evening, by chance in all honesty because when you live here it’s not that big of a deal as it is to people out of town. Food has gone down in my opinion as well.

But anyways, we were the 2nd row back from the long part facing the BP gas station facing CHS. Enjoying our food and talking I noticed a waitress and another man arguing so it caught my attention. Couldn’t see or hear what it was over but eventually the waitress just walked off. Figured it was over their food, no big deal. Eventually the man got out his car- I didn’t see this part- walked over to a wrecker that was parked some cars down and went to the drivers side window. I don’t know what happened or what was said, but we visually caught the end of it. We saw that man who walked over swinging something. It ended up being a frosted mug for root beer haha. He must have hit the man in the wrecker several times because we could see his face. At this point we were watching closely!! The man in the wrecker got a gun and fired from the inside of the wrecker at the man hitting him. He staggered some steps away (it’s nothing like you see in movies where they just fall back) and collapsed. People were screaming and backing their cars out and leaving. The guy in the wrecker stayed right there if I remember correctly. At this point we got the hell out of dodge! But I remember looking at the people there, some were terrified, running or driving away. And then some just sat there eating like they were just watching a movie??? Like it didn’t phase them I don’t know if they didn’t understand what was going on or what. But just kept eating.

Come to find out the guy in the wrecker was having an affair with the other mans wife, the waitress. And both just showed up at the same time, in a string of very bad events. It’s not a mystery of what went on, but probably the craziest thing I’ve seen go on in public.
