I read this and couldn't hardly believe it really happened. The two-year-old was supposed to get apple juice to wash down his food at an Applebee's. Instead he was served a margarita. The child grew drowsy and started throwing up a few hours after drinking the cocktail. The article says he had to be rushed to the hospital, but he is going to be ok. I'm glad he is going to be ok. How do these things happen?

I am so glad the two year old is doing ok. That is so hard to comprehend that this 2 yr old was served a margarita by mistake instead of apple juice. BTW, like your new picture.

I read this news story as well and only thing I could come up with is whoever was mixing the margarita wasn't paying attention. I'm surprised the lil guy drank it. Yuck!! I don't like the taste of em. I always insist on a lil sip of whatever my daughter is served at restaraunts cause you never know... Just glad to read the poor guy will come out of this unharmed.

its a result of either people being to busy to fully recognise what they are doing or being too demotivated to care. Either way it looks like a case of gross misconduct to me. Surely even the staff in these places should be expected to be able to read even though most appear not capable of holding a rational conversation blessed be

Yeah I heard this one too, also heard Applebee's paid all the medical on this child, which they should of, they are going to be lucky if the parents don't sue them, cause they would win such a negaligence suit.

I'm glad the child is going to be okay. That should have never of happened. I thought I had heard something about this, but I didn't know any details.
