Bakery Closing Nets man Ton of Free Eclaires
Cedar Rabids, IA - Area resident Andrew Rutherford, 43, took advantage of the 7 p.m. closing of Napoleon's French bakery Monday, taking home what he decribed as a "ton" of free eclairs. "I swung by to get a donut just as they were closing and this guy behind the counter asked if I wanted, like, three huge bags of eclairs for nothing," Rutherford said. "So I'm like, 'hell yeah!' They were just gonna throw them out I guess. My roomates were so psyched." Though weighing far less than an actual ton, the eclair bags tipped the scales at nearly nine pounds.
