VAL: Bar on Rainey St. Being Accused of Racism

***Update*** He apologized....K. Very PC of him.

"It is with profound humility that I issue this heartfelt apology. To those who I have hurt and offended, I am deeply sorry. My words and actions were wrong, inappropriate and inexcusable.  They certainly don’t exemplify the values of a community that I love and care deeply about and my insensitive actions do not represent the views of my loyal and dedicated employees.”

“Austin has been my home for over 30 years and I have worked hard to create hospitality experiences that reflect our unique, fun-loving Austin culture and attract patrons and guests who appreciate it. Unfortunately, my own intolerable actions have contributed to a negative environment that has detracted from that culture and vision.  I fully realize that forgiveness may not come easily, but I am asking for it and I pledge to earn it.  I am going to work diligently to earn back the trust of my customers, my employees and this community.”

A newer bar on Rainey St. called Unbarlievable is under fire after someone at the bar responded to complaints being suuuuuuper racist and/or horrible! One of the complaints was that beer was being delivered on a tray in the shape of a swastika! WTF!?

Apparently the reviews function on FB has been disabled. Hmmm...I wonder why.

Let me just show you some of this guy's responses...

***WARNING: Vulgar Language***
