It's clear that Warren Sapp doesn't like being called "boy". Sometimes that phrase can be used as dismissive and condescending to black men. But not when a friggin' waitress does it, you idiot! Sapp stiffed a waitress in Florida this week when he refused to tip her. According to Sapp, the service was terrible. The only evidence he has provided thus far, however, is that she called Sapp and his friend boys when she greeted them. Sapp, who evidently took it to heart, acted like a child when he scrawled "Boys don't tip" on the check. Maybe he's just flat broke after filing for bankruptcy in 2012 and losing a reported $100,000 bet on the Super Bowl in February.
Little is being said by Sapp about any other specifics concerning the service (via Washington Post):
"We also don't know the quality or lack thereof of the service, which we do know did not live up to Sapp's standards. Now, that could be because Sapp expected too much from a restaurant called the 'Upper Deck Sports Bar and Grille' (I Googled the address that can be seen on the tweeted receipt). Or maybe the service was objectively bad, like, maybe the bucket of Heinekens came out warm. That would be awful."
According to the waitress, Sapp was offended from the get go and was probably in a foul mood the whole time after that (via New York Daily News):
"I walked over to his table. It was him and one other guy and I said, 'Hey boys, what I can I get you to drink?' And he was like 'We're not boys. I'm a man.' I mean, saying 'Hey men, what do you want to drink?' sounds kind of weird, I think. I go with 'boys' a lot. It sounds more youthful."
Sapp sounds like he's just being a whiner, which isn't surprising if he gets upset when waitresses do their job.
