One evening a man walks into a fast-food place and buys a nine-piece bucket of chicken…
He takes his chicken to the park for a romantic dinner under the moonlight with his lady.
Upon reaching into the bucket, however, he receives a surprise…
Instead of chicken, he discovers what is apparently the restaurant’s night deposit, over $9,000!
The young man takes the bucket back to the store and asks for his chicken in exchange for the money…
The manager, in awe of the young man’s honesty, asks for his name and tells him he wants to call the newspaper and the local news station to do a story on him.
He will become a local hero, an example of honesty and morality that would inspire others!
The hungry man shrugs it off, “My date’s waiting. I just want my chicken.”
The manager’s amazement over the young man’s humility almost overwhelms him…
He begs to be allowed to tell the story on the news.
At this, the honest man becomes angry with the manager and demands his chicken…
“I don’t get it,” the manager responds, “You are an honest man in a dishonest world!”
“This is a perfect opportunity to show the world that there are honest people still willing to take a stand for what is right… “
“Please, give me your name and also the woman’s name.”
