Excellent News!! Restaurant Shames Rude Commenter

West Virginia Restaurant Shames Rude Commenter by Raising Money for Charity

When Morgantown, W. Va., restaurant owner Dan McCawley saw a rude message posted online about one of his servers, he didn't just get angry. He found a way to turn the negative into a positive.

A user on the restaurant-rating website Urbanspoon left a comment on barbecue restaurant Atomic Grill's page, urging a particular female server to "show more skin." Although the comment was later deleted, McCawley was angry that a man could speak to a woman in such a way. That's when he cooked up a brilliant idea: more skin. Specifically, more potato skins. He announced that Atomic Grill would be serving a limited-edition potato skin appetizer at the restaurant over Memorial Day weekend, with all proceeds benefitting a local charity, the West Virginia Foundation for Rape Information and Services (FRIS).

One can make a very strong point without stooping to the low levels of others.

Love it!
A public shaming and a fundraiser all rolled into one. Good on him!

Cool.
I've ate there. They serve good food.

An excellent way of turning an evil into something good.
Inspiration for the rest of us. I hope they sell a lot of 'skins'.
And I hope the person who originally made the rude comment feels horrid.

Soooooooooo refreshing to see some good news for once. What a classy and witty retort, I totally would go to this place to support his cause if it wasn't such a far drive away.
