I don't understand why a restaurant gets to arbitrarily refuse service.

They have the right to refuse service to anyone as long as it isn't because they're a member of a protected group. So refusing OJ because he doesn't like the guy is OK, refusing him because he's Black would not be.

I think he's incredibly scummy for taking a dozen people out to dinner instead of paying money that he owes in a civil suit. Even if he wasn't paying for their dinner, his was a contribution that he could have been paying.

Oh yeah and that whole "If I Did It, which I didn't, this is how the evidence would show that I did it, if I did, which I didn't, but I could have, but don't worry I didn't, please pay me more money that I'll hide from those I rightfully, legally owe." I'm not sure how that fit on the cover.

What she said.

Not only the $$ he owes in the civil suit, but he keeps saying how broke he is. What about his kids? Shouldn't he be saving every dime he DOES get for them? Steak for 12, my butt.

Last I checked, greens fees were kind of pricey for a guy without a dollar in the bank.

After OJ was asked to leave, his table was given to Michael Jordon.

Do you think it was really arbitrary?


Sure if they served Robert Blake and refused OJ, we'd have something to talk about, maybe.

Oh, and I'm cool with refusing service to the people who were on the wrong side of the civil rights movement, too, if that somehow has anything to do with this.

Lucky for him, under Florida state law his football pension is protected from garnishment, also under California state law his house is safe. So the man gets to keep his only real source of income, but that has to be running short, hence his attempt to make a book deal. That money was allegedly going into his kids' accounts (to protect it from the law) but I suspect that he would have had access.

I guess I would pretty much sell a kidney for my kids, so I have a hard time with his lifestyle while pleading 'broke'. My husband's greens fees go into our budget each month and they are one of the first things to go if things get tight. It's a luxury, and if our kids had no trust for their futures, it would not be on the table at all. Along with steak dinners for 12. Hello Ramen noodles! LOL!
