WTF? Someone stole Muzzi's fountain!

Now this is lame ... sometime on Sunday, July 30, someone stole the water fountain outside of Angelo's Luncheonette.

If you ever have been to Angelo's for lunch (or breakfast), you know that it is one of the coolest places to grab a bite and is family-run by the Muzzis, some of the nicest people you'll ever meet in Wilmington.

And outside the luncheonette is a gorgeous mini-garden with a bench and water fountain that the Muzzi's installed themselves.

The News Journal reports, "The 300-plus-pound fountain -- painted slate blue with a hint of gold -- was a landmark for several years in Forty Acres, a neighborhood of tidy brick row homes and small businesses. The fountain was the symbol of Angelo's Luncheonette, opened 39 years ago at Gilpin Avenue and North Scott Street."

The good news is that Muzz was able to get in a joke to the reporter. "These must be stupid thieves," he said. "'The last thing you do is fool with an Italian's fountain, because that's the last thing you do.'"
