After speaking in Austin, Texas, Thursday, President Obama stopped in at Franklin Barbecue, a restaurant is "well known for its great brisket and extremely long waits." Since presidents apparently have schedules to keep, Obama cut to the front of the hours-long line -- then bought lunch for those behind him as a thank-you. 据合众国际社7月10日报道,美国总统奥巴马在德克萨斯州奥斯丁市发表演说,活动结束后空降德州著名的富兰克林烧烤店点外卖。这家烧烤店在德克萨斯以“牛肉非常美味,但也极其难等”而闻名。显然由于总统日常安排十分紧张,奥巴马插到了这个排了数小时的队伍前面,然后为了表示歉意,主动为排在前面的顾客买了单。 "I know this is a long line," Obama reportedly told the crowd, apologizing for his actions. "I feel real bad, but -- I’m gonna cut." 报道称,奥巴马为自己的插队行为向顾客道歉称:“我知道你们排了很长时间的队,我很抱歉,但是我不得不插队。” The restaurant's owner, Aaron Franklin, told the Austin American-Statesman the president is the first person he's allowed to skip the line, adding that Obama ordered enough meat to "feed a small village." 烧烤店老板阿伦·富兰克林说,奥巴马是这家店开张以来“加塞儿”的第一人,不过他补充说,总统点的食物足够“养活一个村庄”。 |
