The 'Waffle House' is undoubtedly an American institution. Where else can hungry Americans go after a night out of rabble rousing to eat breakfast foods and probably get in a fight? As such, video game enthusiasts have asked one game maker to add the option of 'Waffle House' in the game.
Troast (@backendtechdev) ~ {Replying to @Harada_TEKKEN} Mr. Harada, can you please add this stage to Tekken 8 please! 😫😫😫
Katsuhiro Harada (@Harada_TEKKEN) ~ Ok, I will only ask once about this request. Why do some communities send me requests for "Waffle House"?
Please be sure to explain the basis for the request, including the original story, history and background.
I look forward to an explanation from someone who knows more.
A designer of the game 'Tekken' reached out to Twitter for answers. For full disclosure, he is in Japan so not understanding the request makes sense. The answers were epic, though.
Yes, this is a very reasonable question by a Japanese person who knows nothing about Waffle House. Maybe ribit can 'splain it to him?
It's so very American.
Maybe 'Waffle House' can do what Obama, Trump or Biden could not ... unite Americans.
George Alexopoulos (@GPrime85) ~ This is where many fist fights in America take place. It will make many people angry, because it's true, which will only sell more copies.
If the fight starts inside, then we smash through the windows into the parking lot, it will your most famous stage. I guarantee it.
This is really all Harada needs to know, honestly.
tpy (@tonyohsix) ~ I invite you to come to the U.S. I will personally take you to a Waffle House at 3 am, after that, you make your decision.
READY TO BE ONCE (@Tiaygo_) ~ In the U.S., a lot of drunk people go to Waffle House, after a night of drinking, and often get into fights. It's a great setting for a Tekken stage, honestly.
Felipe Budinich (@FelipeBudinich) ~ Some of us go peacefully.
Is that true, ribit?
Some of us just want a good hash brown bowl, to be fair.
Morris Cody (@Morris_Cody) ~ The strongest fighters come here at 2 a.m. after a night out drinking.
Maybe not the strongest, but definitely the most inebriated, and the ones who are ready to rumble.
J-Sun (@ThebanMonk) ~ In the days of Rome, heroes were forged in the arena. Today, we carry the torch of Rome, but we no longer have the arena. Glorious combat is to be had at Waffle Houses. We literally measure a storm’s intensity by the Waffle House Index. They are that vital to our communities.
On the way to Waffle House ...
I'm sure that's why they have at least 10 Waffle Houses within the city limits of Toad Suck, GA, alone!
Briefkase (@KaseTime) ~ It's a common meeting spot for mutual combat in the United States. It has notoriety because the employees are also battle hardened.
Also, an important side note. You don't want to mess with the employees either. They are not there for the foolishness.
TheBeeR (@Bdouble3r) ~ Waffle House isn't just a restaurant chain; it's a cultural cornerstone, serving as both a community hub and a symbol of resilience in the face of adversity.
Amen.
