Walmart Makes Insensitive Paul Walker Joke on Twitter
-- A rep for Walmart tells us,"We apologize to Paul Walker's family, friends and fans. The tweet was posted in poor judgment and has been removed."-- The tweet has been deleted. We've reached out to Walmart for comment ... so far, no word back.jokes on Twitter, even if said joke is ripped from a funny TV show.
Here's what went down -- a Twitter user shared a story about Walmart selling Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls with strawberry and cream-flavored icing ... and added a funny gif of a car wildly racing through traffic with the caption,"*me racin to the nearest Wally World*." Innocent enough ... however, the person behind Walmart's Twitter account Thursday decided to take things up a notch and responded to the gif by saying,"Hey, Paul Walker. Click it, or ticket."
The Walmart employee was likely trying to make a"Fast & Furious" reference ... but it's backfired big time. We did some digging, and the same line was actually used in an episode of"Workaholics."as a passenger in a Porshe driven by his friend ... at speeds over 100mph.
