Black man wearing $250 black wool herringbone trousers told his pants were "too street" for

[MADem]

31. I think it's a bit pretentious. What's next? Style snobbery at Burger King?

It looks like a crappy sports bar, with those stupid "too high" tables (with faux-rustic wooden tabletops given heavy layers of polyurethane--how "classy&quot and a menu that includes way too much starch and greasy meat.

As I said, if we were talking about heavy linen tablecloths and waiters in soup and fish I could completely see a point, but this is a lousy pizza place with delusions of grandeur, within stumbling distance of two major sports venues, that gets all frou - frou over "sports jerseys." In this guy's case, he had on (oh, the horror!) a "baseball cap." And anyone who mistakes wool trousers for "sweat pants" but allows the cargo pants and shorts and yoga pants on through without a gripe is a poor haberdasher and should not be gate-keeping the menswear at the door.

Something stanks up in there....and it ain't the anchovies. Inconsistent application of vague rules opens them up--and rightfully so--to charges of discrimination.
