Racist Redskins Sign At Sonic Drive Thru Causes Controversy
What Is Wrong With This Picture??
What the hell were they thinking with this one???
Via NBC News:
A Sonic Drive-in signboard that carried a “shockingly racist” message about the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs and Washington Redskins prompted an apology from the restaurant chain on Sunday. The uproar began after a photo circulated on Twitter showing the sign in Belton, Missouri. The sign, which has since been taken down, read: “‘KC CHIEFS’ WILL SCALP THE REDSKINS FEED THEM WHISKEY SEND – 2 – RESERVATION.”
On Sunday, the Washington Redskins lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in Landover, Maryland. Patrick Lenow, vice president of public relations at Sonic, told NBC News that the sign was created by an employee who is “known for creative use of his signs,” but that this sign was done “in poor taste.”
SMH. No idea why one would think this was appropriate.
