Ruby Tuesday turns away customers wearing Clemson attire.

Ruby Tuesday in North Augusta, SC refused service to a couple because he was wearing a Clemson shirt. Help spread the word and let them know how we really feel about that. I will NEVER spend money there again.

Have you had Ruby Tuesday lately?
Dec 9, 2015, 12:00 PM

They were doing the Clemson fans a favor. Honestly, if you are wearing Clemson gear, don't show the level of ignorance that is involved with walking into Ruby Tuesdays. They suck these days.

First, how dumb of RT or the local manager.
Second, who cares? They are not the only place to get a meal in N. Augusta.
Third, this is exactly how all forms of discrimination should be taken care - talk about those doing wrong and let the market decide. Retail and public establishments which have a bad attitude will not likely last long.

North Augusta is split about 40% Scar, 40% Clemson, 20% UGa fans so they are really limiting their market.

Take it to social media. It won't take long to get a response from their corporate social media arm.

It is not a protected class. I know this because I asked HR once if I could not hire a qualified candidate just because he went to USuCk. I was told that does not violate any laws. Also, if you went there you aren't going to be qualified from the start anyway.

I tend to doubt the validity even more.
Facebook is a medium chock full of instigators, whiners, and the terminally "offended". This falls directly in line.
Good grief - grow up, society.

Is he an associate minister at First Baptist Church in NA?

If so I know who that is and I can ask my boss, who is the finance director at the church, if he can verify the story.

I am the one this happened to. The young manager took her jokes too far. When my wife and I gave her several opportunities to stop and she continued. I do believe she was joking. Truthfully this thing has gotten out of hand. We left before she could seat us, we were not refused. I am a pastor and a former player, and the regional manager has taken care of this. In no way shape or form did we want this to get to this point.
