PASSENGER CHARGED AFTER SMUGGLING THE BUFFET'S MASHED POTATO STATION INTO HER CABIN
PASSENGER CHARGED AFTER SMUGGLING THE BUFFET'S MASHED POTATO STATION INTO HER CABIN FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA — Renee Alcott, 43, was charged Tuesday after cruise security discovered she had dismantled and relocated an entire mashed potato chafing station from the ship's buffet into her cabin, complete with the bacon bits, shredded cheese, and green onion toppings bar still intact. Crew members say the setup looked more permanent than opportunistic. Staff reported the full steel chafing dish was found plugged into her cabin's hair dryer outlet Witnesses say she had also relocated all three garnish trays in a single trip using a luggage cart Crew members reported finding a handwritten sign taped to her door reading "POTATO BAR, KNOCK FIRST" She allegedly told security the station was "clearly abandoned" since nobody was refilling it fast enough Staff say a second cabin down the hall had been charged a "topping fee" of two dollars per visit Investigators say the extension cord used to power the warming tray was also missing from the buffet's dessert station Fellow passengers reportedly lined up outside her cabin once word got around the ship. "In nineteen years working maritime security, I've confiscated plenty of contraband, but never an entire chafing station," said Chief Security Officer Daniel Whitmore, a 19-year veteran of the cruise line's security division. The station was returned to the buffet. The bacon bits were not recovered. She saw an opportunity. She took the whole tray. Some cravings simply cannot be contained to a plate.
