No root beer at A&W!?!?
I emailed corporate, they gave me 2 free meal coupons. Ridiculous not to have root beer but very good response.

My one and only trip to an A&W ended up being hysterical. It was one of the old ones (before they merged with KFC). The tables had phones on them you used to call in your order and they would bring it to your table. After bringing us our food a friend wanted some ketchup for his fries. He stood up and went to the counter to ask. The woman standing behind the counter pointed to a phone on the wall and told him to use that phone to request it. Confused, he picked the phone up. Three feet away, that same woman picked up another phone and took his request. She explained that the rule was that all orders or requests had to come through the phone.
She brought him some ketchup to our table and when another friend was about to ask for something, she held up a finger to stop him, walked behind the counter to the phone, then pointed at the phone on our table, telling him to use it instead of talking directly to her.
We all thought we were on some kind of strange episode of punked.
