Woman charged $5.00 for urinating in Tennessee restaurant

I was watching The Today show today and saw a story about a woman who had to go to the bathroom and rushed in to a restaurant called "The Flood Zone" in Erin, Tennessee. She asked a female employee behind the counter if she could use the bathroom and got permission. She visited the restroom and left the restaurant. Apparently there was a sign at the restaurant that states the restaurant would charge a $5.00 fee to anyone who isn’t a customer of the restaurant. After she left the restaurant, she says the restaurant’s owner tracked this lady down by writing down her vehicle's license plate number and then had the sheriff trace it to its owner. This lady was shocked to get a handwritten note asking her to send payment of $5.00 for the restroom use. She complied by visiting the restaurant in person to pay the fine but they would not take her money. She then got a money order and sent it to them and they returned it to her. Can you believe this? It is so petty. I can't believe it. And really, $5.00 to use the restroom? Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!
