OJ Simpson Kicked Out of Restaurant

OJ SimpsonOJ Simpson was asked to leave an upscale steakhouse in Louisville by its owner the night before the Kentucky Derby because, the owner claimed, he is sickened by the attention Simpson still attracts.

“I didn’t want to serve him because of my convictions of what he’s done to those families,” Jeff Ruby said in a telephone interview Tuesday. “The way he continues to torture the lives of those families … with his behavior, attitude and conduct.”

Simpson, an NFL Football Hall of Famer and Heisman Trophy winner, was found innocent in 1995 of killing his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ron Goldman but was found liable in a civil trial that followed.

Ruby who owns restaurants in Cincinnati, Louisville and Belterra, Indiana said Simpson, who was in town for the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, came in with a group of about 12 Friday night and was seated at a table in the back. A customer came up to Ruby and was “giddy” about seeing Simpson, Ruby said.

“I didn’t want that experience in my restaurant,” Ruby said, later adding that seeing Simpson get so much attention “makes me sick to my stomach.”

Simpson politely said he understood and then gathered his party to leave. Ruby said after Simpson left, people in the restaurant started applauding him. He said he has received about 100 positive e-mails since the incident.
