| - My husband and I stayed at the Graduate Hotel Madison this past weekend visiting from Chicago. One of the features that attracted us to this spot was the roof top bar. On Saturday afternoon, after strolling around, we decided to take a break with a glass of wine and cheese plate at The Madison Blind.
The start was a bit rocky - the seat cushions on the patio were wet from rain (probably should have brought them inside during the storm) and there was no music on (not the best ambiance). Both minor grievances, and if that had been all I would be giving 3.5/4 stars.
However, as we were wrapping up, a 20 something couple arrived. From the first second I saw them it was clear they were inebriated, completely and utterly inebriated. They were seated and not turned away for being over served.
What happened next was deeply disturbing. The guy took out a stack of cash and began throwing bills on the ground and telling the young woman he was with to, "fetch, dog."
"Fetch, dog."
Yes, this is restaurant review website and not a political forum, but I'm going to take there anyway:
Allowing this behavior in your establishment perpetuates rape culture.
Laughing off this behavior, as the group of men that were there and apparently knew the drunk couple did, perpetuates rape culture. It's gross and upsetting and not okay.
