Teresa Had Anxiety Attack When Thinking About Prison?
"Teresa went up to the owner and told her that she didn't want to be seated where people were going to bother her."
After the owner asked her if she preferred to sit further back, The Real Housewives of New Jersey star pulled the old, "Do you know I am?" card.
Unfortunately for them, the owner had no clue of her celebrity status.
The eyewitness continued and said, "Once inside, Teresa sat with a menu covering her face for a little while. She didn't even look at the waitress. Her friends ordered cosmos for her."
As for her husband, his attitude was said to be just as funky. The same witness said that Joe was rude to the waitress when it came to something as simple as getting a straw.
"He ordered a drink and when the waitress set it down, he snapped at her asking, 'Where's my straw?' When she returned with a straw and he just grabbed it out of her hand, with no regard for her."
That's not all. It turns out the couple didn't even pay for their meal. But when their friends did, they were a little short.
"The best part is that the check was $201.25 and they gave the waitress $201.00 and told her that they didn't have a quarter. I will mention that 18% gratuity was included. Thank God, or the waitress would have been screwed."
Teresa is facing up to 27 months in jail while Joe could get up to 46 months and deportation after serving his sentence. Their sentencing is scheduled for July 8. They pleaded guilty to 41 counts of fraud including bankruptcy and mortgage on March 4.
