Ric Flair asked to leave restaurant following incident with kitchen manager

Ric Flair is not happy with how his recent trip to a stone-fired pizza restaurant went. 

Flair posted to social media over the weekend that he was asked to leave a Piesanos location in Gainesville, Florida after taking issue with "The kitchen manager taking too long in the bathroom."

Flair wrote:

I Spent $1500 At @piesanosstonefiredpizza To Be Disrespected More Than I Ever Have In My Entire Life. After Taking 20 Pictures With Customers And Staff, I Was Asked To Leave Because Of An Issue I Had With The Kitchen Manager Taking Too Long In The Bathroom. I Would Highly Recommend That Anyone Who Wants To Enjoy A Relaxing Time In Gainesville At A Nice Restaurant To Never Visit This Place! WOOOOO!

Piesanos co-owner Jerry Roberts spoke to the Gainesville Sun and said he is proud of how the restaurant staff responded to the incident. However, he declined to mention what specifically led to Flair being asked to leave.

"We have reviewed video of the incident that took place recently at our restaurant. It is clear, our team worked in a professional manner to ensure the safety of guests and staff. We have thanked our team for their professionalism. We are proud of how they responded to this situation using and displaying our team values," Roberts said. 

Flair posted a photo from the restaurant on Sunday, captioned with:

In Gainesville At Graduation! The Family That Continues To Grow! Congratulations Paris And Summer! WOOOOO!

Earlier today, clips from Flair's recent appearance on the Jaxxon Podcast made headlines as he revealed doctors have told him he had a heart attack at some point within the last two years. Flair believes he suffered it during his last match in 2022. 

Today is also the anniversary of Flair dropping the NWA World Heavyweight Championship to Kerry Von Erich at Texas Stadium.

"40 years ago today was the Kerry Von Erich NWA title win over Ric Flair at Texas Stadium. This was the culmination of an 18 year chase dating back to Fritz failing to beat Kiniski, Dory Jr., Race and Terry Funk. One of my favorite wrestling memories live. The day was brutally hot," our own Dave Meltzer wrote on X.
