HUNTINGTON, WV (WOWK) – Months after Crisppi’s Chicken was opened in Downtown Huntington by former NFL star Randy Moss, the restaurant is facing criticism after a manager posted a series of videos across social media.
That manager, who told 13 News he would only give us his first name ‘Kurt,’ said bad reviews and comments against the restaurant are part of what he believes is discrimination from the community.
The original video posted by Kurt took Facebook users by surprise.
Kurt opened with, “Crisppi’s [is] here to give you a great vibe, great energy, great food. Randy Moss invested his time and energy, but since we’ve been here for the past few months, it’s been nothing but negativity from the community. The community not supporting.”
However, that video is catching Huntington citizens and Crisppi’s fans off guard.
Kurt continued in the video by saying, “The entire community is filled with negativity. Being an African American company, this is what we deal with on a regular basis. We are not the other color, which is unfortunate to you guys, because if we were the other color, I’m sure there would be a lot more respect.”
