Got Walked

"Got walked" is a term I never heard until today. Well evidentally this is a term that waitors/waitresses use when one of their customers leaves the restaurant without paying.
Anyway, I heard a weird story that took place in Dallas, Texas recently: Two ladies left a restaurant without paying the check, in other words they "walked". Their waitress saw the ladies leave without paying and ran out to their car where the two ladies promptly ran the waitress over and killed her.
Do you people know any other terms waitors/waitresses use when customers leave without paying the check?

"Got walked" is what happened to me often when playing baseball. I wouldn't swing at a thing back then and none of the pitchers could throw a strike to save their lives.

I always called it "Dine and Dash"

Talking

"Walked on the check" I've heard.

About five years ago I saw a man put a pepper shaker (it was a mini-grinder people loved them and always "liberated" them) in his pocket before he had his meal. I asked the manager how much it cost and he said "Charge him five dollars open food". So I added a five dollar 'open food' to his bill. I dropped the bill, and when he asked what the charge was, I said "For that pepper mill in your front left pocket". He took it out, slammed it on the table handed the check back to me to take off the charge and said, "I didn't want it anyway." Pretty funny.

I caught up to a guy once doing a "dine and dash" about eight years back. He was drunk and had a cast on his leg. Not a real quick get-away. He came back willingly.

My wife worked at a place in Miami where a waiter always served a lady her lunch (This is his story to her). She always had the same thing Shrimp and Scallop pasta. Everytime she would always eat the shrimp and leave the scallops. Eventually the waiter became comfortable enough to just eat the scallops after clearing the plate (yea gross already I agree). One day he said to her, "Hey you can just double up on the shrimp if you don't like scallops." She turned to him and said, "Oh no, I just like to suck all the sauce off them and then push them to the side of my plate."
