Viral video shows Mass Ave Bar to clear up Trump supporters

A viral video that was published online last weekend shows that a woman who was asked to leave the ChatterBox Jazz Club on Mass Avenue to be a Trump trailer.

The video was viewed online millions of times and was even divided on the personal report of the governor of Lieutenant of Indiana, Micah Beckwith.

In the approximately 40-second video you can hear a woman who asks two people who stand behind the bar, why they ask them to go. During the encounter, one of the bartender pulls out a racket under the bar.

“Go out of my bar,” the bartender can be heard.

“Is that serious … because I wear a Trump hat?” The woman who records the video answers.

“Yes,” replies the bartender.

The woman, who has now been identified as Elise Hensley, was interviewed in News 8. She told the ward that she was asked to go immediately after the Trump hat had entered. She was wearing it, she said because she loves the president.

Hensley also appeared on Monday afternoon at the Wibc Hammer and Nigel show and informed the hosts that she had submitted a police report. According to Hensley, she had entered the bar just to see a friend of playing music.

“I was really relaxed all the time,” she said. “I just wanted a drink.”

Chatterbox has posted its own version of events on Instagram. In her post, the bar said that a group was bothering and satisfied there was the chatterbox. This was before the group started taking the video according to the bar.

“We have a right to reject the service to anyone who bothers our business,” says the explanation.

David Andrichik, owner of the Chatterbox Tavern, said that four people entered the bar on Friday and immediately started to bother his bartender, who identified as a woman.

“It was like” Hey, Sir, get us ” – something like that,” said Andrichik. “So it was very intended. And then then continued with this verbal abuse, which we then rejected their service. “

Hensley contested the bartender, but continued to describe “he”.

Andrichik rejected it to offer the bartender's name, but said that the woman was still busy with CHatterBox.

People were denied the services before the chatterbox because they behave badly or have too much to drink – but Andrichik fears that the incident will draw attention to the bar on Friday.

“We have to be careful,” he said. “I mean there are thousands of really bad threats, but it only takes one to do something.”

Andrichik said he planned to have two bartenders in the staff to deal with incidents.

“Jazz attracts everyone. We always did it and we love everyone who goes into the door, ”he said. “The music is the attraction, but the level of comfort for everyone holds people there and holds back people.”

Hensley did not answer a comment on WFYI's request.
