Cops: Kid Rock Served Ass Whuppin' at Waffle House

Posted Oct 21st 2007 6:10PM by TMZ Staff

Kid Rock was arrested in Atlanta early this morning after allegedly getting into a brawl at a Waffle House in DeKalb County -- not exactly the VMAs!

As first reported by FOX 5 News/Atlanta, Rock, real name Robert Ritchie, and five members of his entourage were each taken into custody on a misdemeanor charge of simple battery.

According to the report, Kid Rock stopped at the Waffle House at 5:15 AM on Sunday after performing that evening. A customer allegedly recognized a woman who was with Kid, they exchanged words, and that escalated into a fight in the parking lot.

According to myfoxatlanta.com, the customer was charged with one felony count of second degree criminal damage to property -- allegedly for smashing a window. The window damage was estimated at more than $500 -- which constitutes a felony in the state of Georgia.

Kid posted bond at about 5:00 PM and left DeKalb County jail, signing autographs for fans as he made his way back to his tour bus.

77. Why is there a Waffle House right next door to the T.M.Z. offices? Answer: So on slow news days, they can step out and find worthless stories like this.They probably paid Kid's bill for providing the excitement?

79. I'm not so much sticking up for the guy, but at least he was cool enough to sign autographs coming out of jail ( perhaps practice makes perfect). I also believe that as much as he can create problems for himself, I would bet that he is a marked man for any douche to try to take a swing at. I can just say that it would make some redneck feel set for life to say they took a swing at him. Plus, you just know he's gonna swing back. Gotta love ( maybe laugh) at a guy who wears his own t-shirt.

86. Kid seems to be resorting to duking it out these days. He probably needs to be mandated to attend Anger Management.

89. I think I am one of the few people, who appreciate the fact that there is a man out there, who if someone disses him or someone he is with, that will beat the crap out of 'em.
Why couldnt the man just leave him alone?
And, where else are you going to get something to eat at 5:00 am ?
I love waffles!
Way to 'man up' Kid.

90. Of course Waffle House is in business. There is one on every corner in the south. It's where everyone goes to eat after they get drunk and the bars close.

Any way does he ever wash his hair? Or maybe it got some syrup in it. And what was he doing in that part of ATL any way? Drugs and hookers.
