Buffalo Wild Wings fires multiple employees after alleged incident of racism
Some employees at a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in the Chicago area have lost their jobs after an alleged incident of racism against a group of black customers.
Speaking to Chicago ABC station WLS, Justin and Mary Vahl of Montgomery, Illinois, said they arrived at the restaurant with their family and friends to celebrate a birthday when a host inquired about their race, saying a"regular" customer is seated next to their reserved table and doesn't want to sit near black people. But the couple told the host to seat their group there anyway.
Mary Vahl wrote about the alleged incident on Facebook the following day, and her post has been shared thousands of times. She wrote,"A moment to hang out with a group of friends after a birthday party, turned into a discussion with our young impressionable sons about how we didn’t get kicked out, but willingly CHOSE to leave because of the unfair treatment we were being given."
