Cleveland Heights Police received a call about a disturbance at Winking Lizard Coventry at 10:15 p.m. Oct. 9.
A 36-year-old Cleveland Heights man was attempting to leave the restaurant with chicken wings. But the restaurant has a dine-in only policy for wings on Mondays and Tuesdays during "wing night." An employee and a customer told him he could not leave with his food, valued at $2.50. According to employees, he started to arguing and yelling at people around him.
The restaurant called police after he started screaming expletives and confronting customers, and he left. Police found him later in his car outside of the business with an open container. Police arrested him and charged him with disorderly conduct, and cited him for violating the open container law and driving under suspension.
Reports compiled from call logs and information from the Cleveland Heights Police Department.

The Lizard has the same policy for the personal pizza special on the same nights. Of course, it's all about the enforcement. Which differs by server, and by customer. If a drunk jerk comes in, acting like a fool, some servers will decide the policy *must* be obeyed. Others will be happy that he's leaving, and say nothing. Just like bus drivers and riders, it's all about how people handle themselves.
