Cold world… Morton’s Under Fire For Kicking Out Cancer Patient For Wearing Beanie Via NYDailyNews Morton’s Steakhouse will donate thousands of dollars to a Tennessee children’s hospital after staff at the restaurant’s Nashville location kicked out a large group when a cancer-ridden diner covered his head with a wool beanie. There was immediate social media backlash after the 16-person Christmas party at the restaurant rang up a $2,500 bill at the chain steakhouse Friday and were then booted from the upscale eatery after Robert Chambers put on his beanie. A waitress even told Chambers he needed a doctor’s note or to call ahead of his dinner so the party could be placed in a private room, several witnesses recounted on Facebook, Twitter and Yelp. Chambers and his family stormed out, while the rest of the party was in stunned disbelief. “After the rest of us complained – get this – MORTON’S CALLED THE POLICE ON US,” wrote reviewer Jason M. on Yelp. “We were not unruly, and quite civil given the absolute rudeness of the management. I was told by a manager that the police officer was just casually patrolling the area and came in, but I was told later that was a total lie. “It would be one thing if we were just a couple of guys, splitting an appetizer and causing a commotion. However, we were a table of 16 with a $2,000+ tab and being treated like criminals.” Says Mr. Chambers: “I have been in treatment for 10 months fighting for my life,” he wrote Monday. “I don’t need or want another battle. My family and friends are highly protective of me because of this situation. I would like something positive to come from this.” Flip the page to read Morton’s COO and senior vice president Tim Whitlock’s Facebook statement.
