Al Fresco Silliness: The 50 Person Wait List at Medjool

Being in the last column can't be ideal, or entirely necessary.

As we've seen, there's nothing quite like uncharacteristically hot weather to bring out restaurant ridiculousness. Now, we all know what some people think of the, ahem, evening patrons at Medjool, but there's no denying the roof is a pleasant spot before the sun goes down and the masses converge. That said, the above photo arrived in the Eater Inbox over the weekend, and well, we don't know what's more thought-provoking: a) that they bother to write out all 50 slots of the wait list (instead of something more humble/simple like this; or you know, a breathing gatekeeper), b) that someone will surely put a name down for #50, or c) that someone might actually wait out all 50 spots for a table instead of just going to Foreign Cinema next door.
