Tacoma, Washington — (ABC13) — Brian Avey isn’t permitted to serve more than one beer at a time to customers at the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in Tacoma, Wash. But when he heard one woman’s touching story about her brother who had been killed while serving in Iraq, he gladly served two.
On July 9, Brian Avey shared a story on Facebook about a woman who came into his restaurant for lunch. The woman ordered two beers — a Blue Moon and a Corona.
Avey Wrote: = A Military Woman came into my work today for Lunch, she ordered a Blue Moon and a Corona, I told her she could only do one beer at a time, She said the Corona was for her brother who died in Iraq and I won’t be drinking it… It just sat next her at a empty seat her entire Lunch… When I brought her bill I told her Buffalo Wild Wings will be buying that beer… This is what she wrote on her credit card slip…
After she left, I didn’t have the heart to dump the beer out and throw it away, so I put it on top of the cooler next the American Flag… When I showed my boss his response was Amazing… He said “That’s Fine, just do me a favor, put a fresh Lime in it Every Morning”… =
The beer and the flag continue to sit in a place of honor at the restaurant, which has received calls of thanks from all over the wold, according to KIRO.
