No work boots, huh?

No comment.

[wbarmy]

the specificity in this list appears to target a certain demographic of people

I totally agree. No camouflage attire means most of my buddies will not be eating there.

[OttawaFreeper]

But hopefully no jacket required?

[all the best]

Apparently they don’t want slobs. Need more places like that.

“saying the guidelines seem to target them. “

Yeah?

People that dress like that?

You do also notice that it is only for after 10pm. Plan accordingly.

“I don’t want to belong to any club that would accept me as a member.”

This guy Khamil got it wrong: he said he’d boycott a club that did not want him as a member. Allegedly.

[Cololeo]

Appears like they’re trying to maintain a civil environment.

“I'm not going to give my money and enrich your livelihood if you don't respect me as a person. This is a matter of respect,” said Khamil Scantling.

Perfect (whiny) response, Khamil. Take your business elsewhere if you don't like this place's rules. Btw, if it wasn't for the Internet, you wouldn't even know there's a place that doesn't "respect you as a person," and you'd probably be happier. Perhaps you could reflect on that before getting a good night's sleep because you can't go to this place in scuzzy clothes after 10:00 p.m.

Got an oyster bar here that fixed what I suspect this guy is trying to do by simply automatically adding a 20% (or more) tip onto the bill....that did the trick. ;)

A client of mine runs a bar with almost the exact same sign at the door.

What's interesting is that the place isn't really upscale at all. In fact, he runs a tavern next door that clearly caters to a more upscale clientele.

The problem is, people like Scantling say the specificity in this list appears to target a certain demographic of people.

He's right. It does. It targets ghetto thugs and wannabe-thugs. Khamil Scantling won't be confused for one of those if he dresses like a civilized human being.

[LostPassword]

Seems like an opportunity for someone to start a 2nd restaurant in Pittsburgh so people have an option where to eat out rather than going hungry and being offended. /sarc

[cicero2k]

This restaurant better be careful.

The activists will soon target its suppliers, sponsored teams and utilities to get the restaurant cut off.

[maddogtiger]

a good way to prevent smelly patrons, more establishments need to adopt this policy.

[Tai_Chung]

this list appears to target a certain demographic of people.

I thought we weren't suppose to stereotype.

[shotgun]

So is that in effect all day or just after 10PM per the posted sign?

I can understandaggy pants hanging off your ass, but otherwise I think its a bit much for a BBQ joint.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

"...This is a matter of respect,” said Khamil Scantling.

Respect is earned. Not given.

[Delta 21]

I wonder if the sign read “NO WHITES AFTER 10:00 PM” if anyone would have noticed?

[bgill]

Apparently, the owner wants to retire really soon.

No camo or work boots excludes all us Crackers from Washington, Fayette and Greene Counties.

Home ain't got no beef.

[PAR35]

They are clearly racist. They only banned WHITE T-shirts. T-shirts of color are still allowed.
