MSU fans calling for boycott of Outback restaurants

Submitted by Wolverine Devotee on

This is just too good not to post. 

 

Just sent a complaint to @outbackbowl and @Outback that I will never eat at an Outback again. The food is worse every year and they showed they are want branding lies over quality. I encourage @MSU_Football and Spartans to #boycottoutback. East Lansing Outback should be empty.

Michigan did not beat a team with a winning record. I am a Michigan resident who will not only not watch the game but I will not eat at the restaurant. #boycottoutback

@outbackbowl Way to select an undeserving team in #UofM who
1. Is UNRANKED 2. Has a worse record than #MSU 3. Was beaten by MSU.
It’s a great reminder you only care about $$ and a reminder I will never step foot in an Outback. Hope your game day ratings tank. #boycottOutback

MSU is ranked 16 and U of M isn’t even ranked. And MSU neat UM - so what’s your point?? #BoycottOutback

Good job picking two unranked teams for your bowl game #outbackbowl #scUM #BoycottOutback

Bring back merit-based bowl game selection. And also #BoycottOutback

#FootballinParadise can go f@#k itself. Total fraud taking a team that has not beat a ranked team or a team with a winning record. #boycottoutback @outbackbowl

The @bigten is a joke...Delany's driven this conference into mediocrity. Doesn't matter how you play...what's next, playing the BIG basketball tourney a week early just to get into NYC? Oh yeah, they've already done that #smh - #BoycottOutback

#FootballinParadise I will not watch the game. I will never eat in an Outback restaurant. The food is garbage and outback showed it is all about flash over quality. The steaks are shoe leather. #boycottoutback

No matter what they do, no matter how many times they may beat us,they will always be second class citizens compared to Michigan.



Nothing they do will ever change that.

That seems a bit extreme! It’s certainly easy for outback to find other workers, yet the MSU fans are going to have a tough time getting another job.

"I pity the fool." They just cannot step into the light and act like a legitimate fanbase or even program (Dantonio's smug comments and the players whining on Twitter).

Sadly, it will never get any better for them.

Is hardly a ringing endorsement. As an industry lifer here in Chicago I wouldn’t call the steakhouses here snooty. Maybe steakhouse staff is jaded knowing the majority of the patrons are going to be tourists or from the suburbs. With so many Michelin starred restaurants why on earth go to a steakhouse in the first place#tourist

An SEC also-ran in central Florida again? No thanks. I would swap opponent, location, and game time (I personally love that 9pm Thursday slot) in a heartbeat. Both are meaningless games. Their righteous indignation is misplaced.

Yeah...not sure why they’re upset. They play another ranked opponent. Win that game and they’re top-10 to finish out this year.



Who cares when/where you play.

Brilliant move by the Sparty fans. If each and every Sparty fan boycotted Outback it could literally cost them hundreds of dollars in lost business.

I guess they don’t have a lot of faith in a fan base that thinks that college football started in 2007.
