Late Beer Delivery Causes Widespread Panic

A delivery of beer that was supposed to arrive a Jimbo's Beer Shack at 2:45 PM Monday didn't arrive until 2:58 PM, plunging the Shack into thirteen minutes of chaos.  A riot began and did not end until the beer finally arrived.  The violence caused $4.35 (plus tax) in damage, the cost of the several nails and bottle of glue that Jimbo needed to purchase to make repairs.

"We all watched nervously as the sixty seconds of 2:45 ticked by," said a customer.  "If the delivery didn't arrive, we would only have enough beer left for nine more days.  I think it's pretty easy to see why we reacted as we did when 2:46 arrived."

Even Jimbo lost control of himself momentarily.  "At first I was throwing chairs and breaking bottles just like everyone else," he said.  "But then I realized that we might damage the precious little beer we already had, so I decided to take control of the situation"  Jimbo had his robotic bartender, Machine, fire tear gas canisters around the Shack.  "But then he fired a rubber bullet at my eye, so I punched him, which really hurt my hand," said Jimbo.  Jimbo then deactivated Machine and took matters into his own hands by running around the Beer Shack swinging a baseball bat everywhere.

When the beer delivery finally arrived after a few agonizing minutes, the Beer Shack customers righted everything that was knocked over and joyously returned to their wasted existence.
