Happened to me once. I did not know who he was in told him so. It’s possible the guy was bluffing. He claimed to be some state senator.

    I worked at a now closed greasy spoon directly across from University of Kentucky in Lexington about 25 years ago. We would put your name on your ticket, so that we could call your name when your order was ready. Apparently I thoroughly insulted several of the basketball team because I had no freaking clue who they were. I went to Transy. I don’t know your sportsball teams.

        Admittedly the place in question was Tolly Ho’s so I understand some of the confusion on the player’s part. They do LOVE basketball in that town. Friendly people though, at least when I went to college.

          That’s the name of the place I assumed it was lol! It was bugging me that I couldn’t remember. I only lived there for like a year though. And yeah the city was far nicer to me as a visibly queer person with an Ohio accent than I expected it to be.
