other employees came and subdued Dowdle, and they bound his hands with plastic zip ties.

Very clearly trained by Fox and Mulder!!

That is interesting to say the least.

Going to change the thread title though.

Being in the tire business, the first one that came to my mind was the ones you see to check tires (aka tire thumpers). You can put the world of hurt on somebody with these.

Getting warranty service can be that frustrating.

There is always two sides to an argument. The truth is usually somewhere in the middle.

I've had an older person try to fistfight me in the parking lot because I wouldn't mount some old bias tires he had. I walked off and he followed me inside, still trying to fistfight.

You're right! I assume from the mugshot, there was a moment of "Hey ya'll, hold my beer and watch this!"

That was a mugshot? I thought it was the Camping World managers picture?

Wmtire, now come on, that was meant to be a joke. No Camping World manager looks like that. But he does resemble a Camping World salesmen or two I have ran into over the years.

Now he gets to "rough it" indefinitely courtesy of the New Braunfels PD!

I would assume the guy went off because he bought the camper from that CW and they were flipping him off on warranty service. Regardless how it ended up the CW manager was wrong for following the guy out to his car. He should of called the cops as soon as the guy became abusive inside the store and let them handle the removal. Often, just the mention of calling the cops loud mouths will have enough sense to leave. INMO the manager should at least be fired from his job because tried to be "Joe Macho" and for all we know maybe he did incite the fight.

Honestly, they'll make you feel like you want too. I mean when you are standing there with a new RV under warranty and they're telling you it's going to be $120/hour because they can't find the leak....even though they felt the wet under the cabinet. I had to just leave because I didn't want to end up taking a mug shot!
