Wonder what's harder? Playing in the NFL or owning a bar?
"A man is suing the Missoula Club after one of the bar's bouncers allegedly assaulted him while yelling homophobic comments.
The lawsuit, filed on May 30, accuses the Missoula Club and one of the bar's bouncers of discriminating against a gay man who suffered a broken nose, dislocated shoulder, torn rotator cuff, and cuts and bruises in the alleged assault. Reece Pierce went to Providence-St. Patrick Hospital Emergency Room for treatment of his injuries, according to the suit.
According to a Missoula City police report filed on May 6, Ryan Blume allegedly punched the man in the back of the head, pushed him against a wall and threw him to the ground outside the Missoula Club shortly after midnight. Missoula police issued Blume a citation but was not taken into custody. He is next scheduled to appear in Missoula City Court on July 11, according to court records.
The lawsuit, which termed the assault a "hate-based attack," said the "openly gay" man was with a group at the Missoula Club when one of his friends got into an argument. The group was leaving the bar when Blume, one of the bar's bouncers, began shouting homophobic names at the man, according to the suit."
This bartender is a nice guy. From Anaconda. Think he is good friends with the Verlanic who played center for the Cats. Assume there's more to the story than what the lawsuit says. Too bad.
