THIENSVILLE - A disturbance at a local restaurant when one man got upset that an all-you-can-eat fish fry didn't live up to its name.

At 6'6" and 350 lbs, Bill Wisth admits he's a big guy who can pack it away more than most. And he wants one restaurant to make all-you-can-eat, all he can eat too.

"It's false advertising," said Wisth to TODAY'S TMJ4.

Wisth has a beef with the all-you-can-eat fish fry at Chuck's Place. He was there Friday when the restaurant cut him off after he ate a dozen pieces.

"Well, we asked for more fish and they refused to give us any more fish," recalled Wisth.

The restaurant says it was running out of fish and patience; arguing Bill has been a problem customer before. They sent him on his way with another eight pieces, but that still wasn't enough.

He was so fired up, he called the police. "I think that people have to stand up for consumers," said Wisth.

And he wasn't done. He came back two days later with a picket sign.

Elizabeth Roeming is a waitress there and says they've tried to work with Bill over the years -- like letting him have a tab he still hasn't paid off.

And customers are running to the restaurant's defense, even interrupting TODAY'S TMJ's interview to give Bill their two cents.

Bill isn't backing down, saying his fish fry fight isn't over. But in the end, even he had something nice to say.

"They do have like some of the best pizza in town if you like deep dish pizza," said Wisth.

Bill Wisth says he will picket every Sunday until the restaurant rethinks what happened.

Wasn't this the plot of a Simpsons episode?

Fuckin' fatties taking this country over...where's "We The People" when you need them?
 
1% of their customers are eating 60% of their fish! This simply is not right, the solution is food caps. It is still all you can eat, the restaurant just decide how much you are able to eat.
 
Restaurant needs to add fine print. All you can eat (max eight pieces per person).

Is it all you can eat? Nope. But it adds the general idea that eight pieces is considered more than enough, and there is a cut off line for all you can eat.

I have little respect for the fat guy, but he's not exactly wrong either. Restaurant just needs to put some fine print out there to make sure he's in the wrong the next time.
