Chris Rock mom snubbed at Cracker Barrel

The mother OF comedian Chris Rock is suing restaurant chain Cracker Barrel FOR discrimination after she claims she was ignored by wait staff at a South Carolina coast location.
Rose Rock said that she AND her daughter were THE only black customers -- AND the only ones ignored. When she brought THE situation TO the managera€?s attention he offered a free meal. "He never called over THE waitresses AND asked, 'Why did these people sit here FOR a half hour without service?'" she said. "The only thing he said was we could HAVE a free meal AND neither OF us wanted TO eat."
A spokesperson FOR Cracker Barrel said of THE alleged discrimination, "It has always BEEN a violation OF our policies AND procedures AND it is neither condoned nor allowed. We do not allow THE type OF behavior you are describing."
This isn't THE first time THE chain has found itself IN legal trouble. Past suits HAVE included discriminating against minority workers AND firing gay employees.
Okay. Let's break this down.
1. THE place is called Cracker Barrel.
2. Ita€?s IN South Carolina, where they still fly THE confederate flag.
It's like a follow-up TO a skit Chris Rock did a few years back. He headed down TO South Carolina with suggestions FOR replacement flags -- one OF which featured a giant Saltine.
