Some Alabama fans clearly weren't happy Deshaun Watson visited a Tuscaloosa bar
Some Alabama fans still aren’t over the Crimson Tide's loss to the Clemson Tigers in the national title game in January. Just ask Deshaun Watson.
Watson attempted to pop into a popular bar in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, on Friday but didn’t stay long after allegedly being harassed and told by some patrons to leave. This video of the incident was shared on YouTube:
Watson, who shredded the Bama defense for 420 passing yards, 43 rushing yards and four total TDs in the 35-31 win in the championship game, left without any incident. According to al.com, a couple of former Alabama players might have been involved. However, it’s worth noting that not everyone at the pub was happy with how Watson was treated, as you can hear in the video.
The Innisfree Irish Pub posted this apology on its Facebook page Saturday:
“Over the years we have had thousands of visitors from rival schools and have always treated them fairly. Today was not any different. The unfolding of today's events was not led by our staff or anyone employed by Innisfree Irish Pubs. Unfortunately a customer attempted to invoke the right to refuse service on our behalf and after being identified, was immediately asked to leave the premises following the incident. We apologize for any inconvenience this incident caused to our customers. We appreciate anyone that chooses to visit our establishment and hope to continue welcoming sports fans for years to come.”
