Tony Parker Denied Service at Memphis Restaurant (It Was Too Busy)

Tony Parker is a human being. Human beings have to eat. Tony Parker is in Memphis to play the Grizzlies in the NBA Playoffs. Memphis has restaurants that serve food to human beings. Tony Parker tried to eat at one of those restaurants, Restaurant Iris. Tony Parker was turned away.

Confirmed MT @MemphisACP: Tony Parker tried to eat dinner @RestaurantIris and was denied service by @kelly_english. Can you confirm or deny?

Oh, snap. Things are getting testy in the Memphis – San Antonio series! More details please!

We have a thirteen table restaurant. There have been times I couldn't get my wife or parents in. I can't create a table, Tony Parker or not.

Oh. So the good news for Tony Parker is that if he really wants to check out Restaurant Iris, he is welcome there with the proper reservations. The bad news is that there doesn’t appear to be anything available until after the series shifts back to San Antiono so the Spurs will have to drop 2 of the next 3 games if Parker wants to go back to Memphis on the company’s dime. Maybe Gregg Popovich will buy him a gift card for a sweep?
