VIBES FLIPPED FAST Fun Moment At Dave’s Hot Chicken Goes Left As Male Employees Are Accused Of A Homophobic Attack On A Gay Customer!
What should have been a celebratory weekend for the grand opening of a new Dave’s Hot Chicken in Tulsa, Oklahoma, quickly took a sharp turn after a chaotic incident inside the restaurant went viral online.
The video begins lightheartedly: a gay customer is standing behind the counter laughing with several female employees, who jokingly hype him up to twerk while music plays in the background. Everyone in frame seems to be having fun — customers laughing, workers smiling, and the atmosphere feeling more like a party than a fast-food shift.
But within seconds, that playful moment unravels.
From off-screen, two male employees rush into the area and abruptly grab the customer. The energy shifts immediately from joking around to physical aggression as they drag him away from the counter. The customer looks shocked, and the suddenness of the intervention stuns the surrounding patrons.
The woman who was with him, identifying herself online as Real Mia, posted about the incident on Facebook shortly afterward. In her message, she accused the male employees of being “openly homophobic” and claimed there was “absolutely no reason” for them to “jump him the way they did.” She said the man was not being disruptive or threatening — he was simply participating in a playful moment that workers themselves encouraged.
Her post quickly picked up traction, spreading across local Facebook groups, TikTok pages, and Twitter threads, with viewers debating whether the incident amounted to excessive force, discrimination, or a misunderstanding that escalated too fast.
Some commenters believe the male employees reacted harshly because of bias, pointing to the contrast between the women who were laughing with him and the men who immediately responded with force. Others speculate that management or kitchen staff may have seen an unauthorized person behind the counter and acted without context — although many argue this still wouldn’t justify physically handling him in that way.
As the clip continues circulating, calls for accountability have grown louder. Many are urging the restaurant — or the broader Dave’s Hot Chicken franchise — to review the footage, speak to witnesses, and address whether the response was appropriate or discriminatory.
What started as a fun, harmless moment between employees and a customer has now evolved into a public conversation about workplace conduct, safety, and the line between enforcing rules and crossing boundaries. The incident has cast a shadow over the store’s grand opening, with many in the community watching closely to see how the company responds.
