restaurant has cop excort man out because he has face tattoos [View all]

Leighton, a 27-year-old chemical plant worker and Pasadena resident went to the Bombshells near Fuqua on Saturday night after seeing Alan Jackson hours earlier at RodeoHouston (see review and photos). He and a friend Chad Moss, 22, entered the bar sometime around 9 p.m. Leighton says.



He had been there a few times before and was never told to leave because of his facial tattoos until Saturday evening.
He says that a police officer walked up to the table that he and Moss were sitting at and said that he needed to escort them out of the bar.
At the other Bombshells locations, including the one down Gulf Freeway in Webster, he says he has always been welcomed even with the tattoos on his face.

The staff member even offered to meet with Leighton at the Bombshells in Webster to chat. They also apologized for any embarrassment he felt on Saturday.
They did stress that this location is a special case and they didn’t want gangs to “overtake” the establishment.
