Starting at 11 a.m., when ordering opened, customers were angrily tweeting at Pecan Lodge, furious about their inability to place an order. 

Pecan Lodge has actually been retweeting customer complaints — and then issued a brief Twitter statement making it clear that they're none too happy with UberEats right now.

Ouch. We tried to place an order for the Pecan Lodge offer on UberEats — which is still listed in its instant offerings, despite users' problems — and have been trapped for more than 20 minutes on a page that claims our order is "requesting." UberEats is telling customers on Twitter to be patient and keep trying — but most people seem to be taking the blind rage option instead.

Reporter Robert Wilonsky checked in with Pecan Lodge's owner, who claims that UberEats dropped the ball by not having enough drivers on hand.

A few Twitter users are reporting successful orders, but so far, this promotional stunt has been like watching a drone crash in slow-motion. We've reached out to Pecan Lodge to find out if they're still participating in Thursday night's event, it doesn't seem likely. We'll update with further statements from both Pecan Lodge and UberEats. 

In the meantime, we'll just keep waiting for a sandwich that doesn't seem likely to arrive.
