Burger King charges hurt kid for ice after bike wreck
August 29th, 2006 by Tim GrahlIce does not appear on Burger King’s menu, but it should after a Newton teen limped into the Moody Street fast-food restaurant last week looking for some cool relief of a sore ankle.
John Michael Jasset staggered into the restaurant about 5 p.m. last Thursday after being hit by a car. He was thrown from his bike and also scraped his knee, arms and hands, his mother, Cheryl Jasset, said.
But when he asked for some ice to put on his ankle, he was told he had to pay for it.

That really stinks.
When I was a teen I worked at a Pizza Hut in Corona CA. I went in at 6 a.m. to make the dough. I arrived at work early one morning and saw somebody obviously had broken in, and it wasn’t obvious to me if the burglars were still in the store or not. I across the street to the Dunkin Donuts and asked to use their phone to call police and the store manager. (This was before cell phones).
The donut shop manager pointed me to the pay phone outside. One of the customers gave me some change so I could make the phone calls.
I haven’t been to a Dunkin’ Donuts in over 20 years.
