Footage of the Ric Flair incident that took place at a pizza restaurant in Gainesville, Florida has made its way online.
On May 5th, Ric Flair publicly called out Piesanos Pizza in Gainesville, Florida on social media. The Nature Boy claimed that after spending $1,500 in the establishment he was asked to leave after there was a disagreement with the kitchen manager:
I Spent $1500 At @PiesanosSFP To Be Disrespected More Than I Ever Have In My Entire Life. After Taking 20 Pictures With Customers And Staff, I Was Asked To Leave Because Of An Issue I Had With The Kitchen Manager Taking Too Long In The Bathroom. I Would Highly Recommend That Anyone Who Wants To Enjoy A Relaxing Time In Gainesville At A Nice Restaurant To Never Visit This Place! WOOOOO!
In the latest update to the developing story, an employee has captured an interaction between Flair and staff on video. TikTok user Bussines11.11 uploaded the video to the platform and described Flair as “drunk and high on coca cola.”
In the footage, the AEW star says that he did nothing wrong except spend money in the establishment and “put this place over.” Then threatening the staff that it would be bad for them and they should watch the media tomorrow, Flair refers to one member of staff as “Nicholas D*ckhead.” Flair, while slurring, continues to argue that he had done nothing wrong.
Referring to the incident with the kitchen manager that was posted on social media, the staff say that Flair used cuss words on the member of staff, which the Hall of Famer denies.
In an even more bizarre turn of events, Flair offers a female member of staff $1,000 to tell another member of staff “kiss my ass” and is also told that he is cut off as he has had too much. Calling a member of staff a “dipsh*t”, Flair says he is leaving and tells the member of staff to meet him outside and “talk to him like a man.”
A patron then offers to meet Flair outside as he is not a member of staff and has nothing to lose. Following some incomprehensible discussions, the video is then cut off.
