Trivia[]
Speculation[]
- Perhaps this western restaurant serves omelettes, as 56 suggests?
- These lines sound a bit unnatural; it is possible that they are in code. The announcer could actually giving orders to soldiers about the enemy surrounding them (for example, table 10 is like 10 o'clock).
- Someone on the youtube channel suggested that it sounds like a transcript of a restaurant game.
- 34 suggests that The Announcer might have a slight OCD. Maybe describing every thing happening at the restaurant is his way of making sense in what's happening.
