DJ ( i think he's the owner too) told my daughters boyfriend of color to leave for no reason. We were all dancing 8 of us and my daughter was dancing with her boyfriend and the owner literally grabbed his beer out of his hand and told him he was being too touchy without even asking her if she was okay. And he wasn't even being touchy other than holding her hand!!! She told him he was her boyfriend and he insisted he leave. I felt like I was in Mississippi in 1950.
