It wasn’t until they got home that they saw the word “n*gs,” an abbreviated form of the “N-word,” printed on their receipt and the box their food was in.
When the couple placed their order, the manager on duty didn’t take down their names. After their leftover food was boxed up and placed in a bag, they went home. Later that morning, they wanted to reheat their potato wedges and saw the racial slur on the receipt.
They received a call the next day from the corporation vice president, who said the kitchen manager at the Woodbridge restaurant “had intentionally placed the racial slur on their order,” according to the complaint.
The company fired the employee.
The complaint asserts that the worker who typed the slur “knew, or should have known, that referring to the Lomans by a shortened version of a well-known racial slur was likely to result in emotional distress.”
The term was “especially painful” for 37-year-old Marc Loman, who “has been subjected to racial animus and harassment in the past,” the suit states.
The complaint goes on to say that the experience reopened
“deep emotional wounds” that were tied to the “pervasive, brutalizing, and degrading racism that traumatized Mr. Loman while growing up in the Deep South.”
Loman reportedly “missed work and sought counseling” after the incident.
He and his wife are seeking a $5 million judgment and $350,000 in punitive damages from Buffalo Wild Wings and the restaurant’s parent entity, Blazin’ Wings, Inc., for intentional infliction of emotional distress.
