People are kidding themselves by saying it isn't about race. They do everything they can to keep the bar as white as possible.
Expect Fred's, they embrace diversity.

no all white shoes has been going on for over a decade. There used to be, or maybe still is, a gang that wears all white shoes.
Black people are allowed in tigerland, follow the dress code. Bars all across the world have dress codes. I guess bars that don't allow hats discriminate against bald guys.
I was in London earlier in the summer. Lots of the clubs didnt let you wear hats or anything related to one of the Football clubs. Some of the pubs allow you to wear your fan gear, but thats usually a supporters pub and do not let any supporters from other teams in.

This article is written every year. It was written when I was in school.

This was a story in 2001 for sure. I was barred from Reggies for having white shoes at one time.

Not necessarily. They have to kick you out to have a fallback.
I do t think it fricking matters anyway though. Why would you want to go somewhere that doesn't want you there? And then give them money? Nah.

I also think a private business can let whomever they want in. Well anyone of age if it is a bar.

I dont think they let jean shorts in either, guess Tim Tebow is discriminated against.

And blacks also could vote way back, as long as they passed that literacy test.

All I know is that white shoes are typically at the center of many club fights.

Wait, is The Reveille doing that thing where liberals pretend they want to have an "honest conversation" about race?
Yawn

i swear there are some people who go to tigerland hoping a drunk frat boy steps on / spills a drink on their new jordans so they can start a fight.

They were applied to all who newly registered. It even kept some poor whites out. So, no

And then you see the older black guys posted up on the hood of their cars outside Fred's/Reggies harassing every girl that walks by and trying to sell drugs (had this happen plenty of times)
Bad crowd = no tips, more fights, and uncomfortable girls not coming in
Eta: All of that said, I have known plenty of black people that are allowed in every place, and have seen plenty of white people turned away. Just don't dress like a thug

If they can't keep them out with the dress code, they'll start playing country music inside.

Discrimination is a great thing, more people should use it in every day life.
