Okay I HONESTLY HATE GREEN BEANS. If I eat them I'm gonna puke, do they understand this?

You can substitute corn for the green beans.My brother in law was just there and doenst eat them either and sub. them and was o.k. but his friend didnt and didnt eat them and the waitress wouldnt let him order dessert till he ate them so when she left he put them in a kids cup with a lid.She thought he ate them till a little kid at the next table told on him.It was funny.

Apparently not finishing your green beans is a big no-no. We were there 2 years ago and my sister and I still about Aunt Rebecca. She was great. Adults were at one table and beside us were our 3 typical tweenagers. We knew what was going to happen but the kids were clueless. The look on their faces was priceless when they all got in trouble for having their elbows on the table and for not setting the table properly.

One of my sister's favorite pictures is of me with Aunt Becky as she "helped" me finish my grean beans with about 15 beans piled on the fork. We played along and loved it. I guess they will only go as far as you let them. I know I said to her that she must love her job and she told me it was a blast but the trick is to know when to play and when to stop and how to judge the family's acceptance of the acting. The food was great but beware....the servings are large!

Go and enjoy! We are definitely going back when we visit in December but it won't be as much fun cuz the kids know what to expect now.

I don't think it's annoying at all. They were pretty sensitive to the one person in our group who wasn't into the "antics". In fact, when they saw that she wasn't into it, they just kidded around with the rest of us.
My DH didn't want his beans and the waitress said to him..."If you don't clean your plate, you get no dessert" Of course, he did get his dessert but it's just the 50's mommy type thing to clean the plate.

If you don't like a certain food, just ask if you can sub something or order just meat, potato, dessert and forgo the veggies. That way you don't set yourself up for the joking....

Our waiter didn't do much of anything much to our dismay but the food was still superior to Sci-Fi and we will continue to go back for that! This time I'm bringing my 50's loving mother in law with me so I'm going to ask for a fun waiter/waitress.

My boyfriend and I went to 50's Primetime and got "Mom" as our server. She asked us politely to set the table for dinner (so mom-like!) and then she asked if we were married. We said no, and so she told one of the cousins from another table to "chaperone" while she went to get dinner. The cousin then yelled out to the whole restaurant "Joe and Carlie sittin' in a tree,
K-I-S-S-I-N-G!!" Even though we weren't even sitting next to each other, much less actually kissing! Our "Mom" came back out to see what was going on and then she reprimanded the "cousin" for being a tattletale.
