Dave & Buster’s Apologizes For Taco Tuesday Tweet

Dave & Buster’s issued an apology today after posting an offensive joke to promote Taco Tuesday.

The restaurant / bar / arcade wrote on Twitter: “I Hate Tacos” said no Juan ever.

Do you get it? They used the name “Juan” instead of the word “one.” Hilarious right?

The restaurant was pretty quick to delete the tweet but not before a few people got the chance to voice their disappointment.

@DaveandBusters @QueenOfShebaN Dave and Busters ‘come for the crappy food and games. Stay for the blatant racism!’
