I was really exited to go to Cancun Cantina for Ladies Night (they give you a white plastic cup for free drinks) and after my initial walk around the club I thought it was really neat. However, after an hour or so I felt that my boyfriend and I were being watched or “judged”. Even one of the bouncers came up to him and asked him to pull down his shirt, which was only at his waist. My boyfriend was dressed nicely in fitted jeans, dress shoes, and a fitted colored shirt.



My boyfriend and I are an interracial couple from North Bethesda. We didn’t realize at the time that we were probably the ONLY interracial couple there that night or at least on the beach bar side. I was at the bar dancing most of the night with my boyfriend and my sister so I can imagine that we stuck out like a sore thumb.



Nevertheless, no matter how much we stuck out or how much dancing we did in the middle of the dance floor it does not make it okay for what happened next. My sister went to the restroom and my boyfriend and I were walking to meet her closer to the ladies room. I was behind my boyfriend when a large, white bouncer came up behind my boyfriend and put his arm around his neck. The next thing I know several other white bouncers came out of nowhere and dragged my boyfriend outside.



The glass doors to the outside were shut and there I was banging to be let out with a crowd of men video tapping my boyfriend being tackled and slammed on the ground. Finally, the man preventing me from opening the doors reminded me that I could go through the front doors of the bar.



By the time I got to the bouncers’, a cop had handcuffed my boyfriend and was arresting him! I ran up to the cop and quickly got his attention. “I am his SOBER driver, I am his GIRFRIEND, his was ATTACKED, what kind of establishment does this to people?” The cop started to calm down and started reasking what I said: “You two are together?” “ You were with him when this happened?” “You are from Bethesda?”…um YES!



To make a long story short the cop believed our story and brought us to our car. The claimed reason for my boyfriends attack and near arrest: they say he was holding a white plastic “ladies” cup. Even if he were holding a cup, the proper course of action would have been to ask him to put the cup down or ask him why he was holding the cup. NOT to attack him and have him arrested.



We feel we were targeted as an interracial couple, but even if this were not the case the way management choose to create a situation out of nothing is ridiculous and dangerous. They played with our livelihoods.
