Subway got sued because their footlong wasn’t actually a foot long.

Back in 2013, a lawsuit against Subway went viral, claiming that their footlongs weren’t always 12 inches. I think the whole thing started when an Australian teen posted a picture on Facebook of the footlong next to a tape measure.

Subway eventually said that they would try and take more measures (hah) to make sure that their footlongs were actually a foot long. And apparently the 9 customers who brought the case forward got $500 each.

And you know what’s crazy? Apparently the lawyers got more than $500,000 in legal fees just for filing the case.
