Here Comes The Claw!!!!!! :)

This is from the Lowell Sun - I need to plan a trip to Mass.
____________________________________

Lovers of live lobsters -- as opposed to boiled ones -- in Massachusetts are angry about a barroom arcade game in which patrons win a live lobster because it demeans the crustacean in question, reports the Lowell Sun.

The game in question, dubbed the Lobster Zone, features a 50-gallon tank with flashy lighting and sound effects. For $2, customers get a shot at plucking one of the critters out of the tank with a metal claw.

Rose McGarry, who one of the machines at J.J. Boomers, called the game cruel. "The things go crazy when they hear the music," she said. "They're realizing they are going to meet their doom."

Common guys they are big bugs wit hno brains (litteraly they have a nevous system but no brain.) sounds like a fun game to me.

Another great flash animation on the net.

Allright CXGJarrod how could you like frozen lobster? it loses all of the falvor..in my book nothing beats a fresh lobstertail...even better off of the east seafood seems to taste better to me fresh from the ocean.

I'm not some raving animal rights freak but f**8k does one have to torment the food befor you eat it.

CGX - The flash link was great.

jinxy - The lobsters are going to be eaten anyways. Why not have some fun selecting them?

Because I dont think that I have ever had fresh lobster. ;) I am sure that I would like live lobster better though...

Glad that you liked the link. ;)

I'm not an animal freak but I'm a sea-food freak. I love shrimp, crabs, lobster, etc all with some tartar sauce :D

<homer simpson> mmmmmmmmmmmm.... tarter sause.... </homer simpson>

All this talk about Lobster has made me hungry.
Anyhow who really cares what happens to the Lobster, the people have paid for it so they are entitled to do what ever they wanna do with it.
If they feel like taking it in a Submarine then that's there problem.
So i don't really understand what people find disturbing about it.
If they were so worried about animal cruelty, then there should be a law stopping people from catching Lobsters.

But then again the people that are complaining are the typical know-it-all activist's, who have nothing better to do then collect Welfare checks every fortnight, and kick up a fuss about something they don't like..

Well here's my opinion agree or disagree that is your choice.


.:front2back:.

Now i just need to figure out how to boil lobster with out that aufle wistiling sound so my wife will let me cook them at home again.

Holy crap! Lowell's only 45 minutes from my house. I'd make that drive for a chance to grab a live lobster, even if I don't eat them. That's awesome!

OverdueSpy - Do you have their address?

Yeah...
Back to the topic at hand.... The best (only) way to cook a lobster is to put it in the pot while it's still alive. So, why don't people complain about that instead of how you get the lobster out of the tank?

Explain to her that it is the air escaping , not the lobster screaming (its true)

And there's a way to prevent it...

My uncle who had diabetes invented :rolleyes: this trick:
He would take one of his syringes, and slowly inject the lobster in a few locations with brandy or wine. The lobster would supposedly have a much better taste (I don't eat lobster) and because there were several holes in the shell, there wouldn't be as much screaming because the air could get out faster.

I just told my fiance'e that they scream when you cook them so that she'll never make them after we're married :p
