The Malt Shop in Weatherford is putting out a lighthearted call for a customer named CJ after a minor parking lot mishap left their awning wiggling a little more than usual.
According to staff, the tap happened around 12:43 p.m. on November 14, when a customer in a dark truck with a camper placed an order, paid, and then accidentally nudged the awning on the way out.
There was no major damage, no angry scene, and no dramatic moment. Just a small bump that the team would like to address before it becomes something bigger. The Malt Shop is asking CJ to return or call so they can sort things out easily and kindly. If he does not reach out, the store plans to review its security footage next.
In true Malt Shop fashion, they are choosing hospitality first. Anyone who helps connect them with CJ or resolve the situation will receive free ice cream as a thank-you. It is their way of turning an awkward moment into something a little sweeter.
Residents who want to help can drop by The Malt Shop or contact the store directly. Moments like this remind people why small-town businesses often feel like extended family. When something goes sideways, the first instinct is to handle it with a smile and offer a scoop on the house.
