Yelpers Take Hilarious Revenge on "We Don't Like Fags" Restaurant

Today in Hilarious and Beautiful Comeuppance News, Yelp reviewers have taken revenge on a blatantly anti-gay restaurant in the most fitting and hilarious way possible.

Two days ago, Gawker covered a story out of Pittsburg, Texas, about a restaurant/bait house/country store called Big Earl's,* which told a gay couple not to come back because apparently they were touching legs, and apparently that's not acceptable couples' behavior if you have two Tab A's and no Slot B's. As part of the whole exchange, the waitress (who happens to be Big Earl's daughter, because of course she does) actually told the men "we don't like fags here." Ohhhhhh, it's on.

Apparently, numerous people on Yelp reacted to it the same way I did, only instead of angry protests, they came up with something WAY more clever: they spammed the Yelp page with reviews that essentially turned Big Earl's into a gay bar.

bwahahahahaha!!!!

I'm really interested in how that's working out.

Is the place being turned into the restaurant equivalent of a Gay Pride parade?


I love the new sign!
