"Ladies Night" Declared Illegal In Minnesota

Posted by samzenpus on from the oh-what-a-night dept.

aapold writes "The Minnesota Dept of Human Rights has ruled that Ladies Night bar promotions are illegal in Minnesota, as it violates gender discrimination laws. This stems from a 1994 incident where a bar patron was angered at having to pay a cover charge during such an event and filed a lawsuit."

    Only if they charge money to straight people and don't charge gay people.

    What's next?
    They going to rule that "White night", where they let all the white people in for free and charge the black people, is discriminatory next?
