[Blind Gossip] This richie rich business man loves to own things.
However, his big bank account also gives him a big mouth and a big ego.
You may have seen him on one of those business-oriented reality shows.
You may have also seen him meddling in politics recently.
He not just a big donor. He thinks that he is the smartest person in the room and that his wallet makes him qualified to tell you how to run your business/life/city/state/country.
Here’s a little secret: He is not a nice person.
Today, we have a quick story for you about what went down when he used to dine at a nice restaurant in a major city.
He was a regular at my restaurant. He was AWFUL. A complete man child of asshattery.
Example?
If there was if one little thing that was not to his liking (like a fingerprint on a water glass), he would scream at you in front of everyone and threaten to call [the restaurant owner] and tell him to fire you. He actually did make that call a couple of times while sitting at the table. He wanted everyone to see how important and powerful he was.
Sounds like a great guy.
One time he did not like the fish special. He started yelling at the server and then he OVERTURNED the table! Everything crashed to the to the floor. Then he stormed out.
We can imagine what that looked like, courtesy of a certain table flipper from Real Housewives of New Jersey!
Oh, and his friend would kick off his loafers with no socks at the table, pick at his feet then go right back to eating without washing his hands.
Yummy. Who’s hungry?

[Optional] Yes or No: Are you going to visit local restaurants as soon as they open again? If no, how long are you going to wait?

Okay Trump is a germaphobe & no way would he be friends with someone who would pick his toes . There is a billionaire named Alki David who has a temper & farted into interviewer’s microphone on red carpet . Steaks imply all things Trumpian which could include siblings ? What if the steak is actually a red herring ? This would go back to Mark Cuban former bar owner & now a Vegan if he stuck with it
Just James says
People that take their shoes off at restaurants or on the airplane need to be fined. –Mark Cuban
sfgirl42 says
This sounds like “Mr. Wonderful” to me. Although Mark Cuban is a close second guess, given the politics comment. He would like to president, it seems. He got seriously lucky long ago with the sale of his company, and was quite something back then – and not in a good way.
Sassymom says
I happen to like Mark Cuban! For that reason, I’m saying Elon Musk.
Haha–altho Kevin O’Leary sounds plausible..surely he is not the same off screen as on!!!
Hardball71 says
How or why would we know Musk for business reality tv?
Cyclist712 says
Clearly Cuban. He buys popularity in Dallas through doing things like funding the local St. Patty’s day parade and party. But, everyone knows he’s a pain in the butt. He was in the right place at the right time and got very lucky. Now he thinks he’s a bigger deal than he is.
deepsigh says
Full disclosure,I am NOT
Definitely Mark Cuban.
Yes. The businesses in my town are dying because of this damned quarantine. We have all been absolute angels when it comes to
staying home and PPE when trips to the grocery or pharmacy were needed.
But now it’s time for America to get back to work. Places here have removed 50% of tables. If Walmart can be open, the spotless small restaurants around here can.
Enough is Enough!
The consent of the governed has been WITHDRAWN.
aemish says
I hope this jerk gets revealed!
axlelei11 says
I don’t think this is Mark Cuban. I’m from Dallas and I know people who have had encounters with him and they were all positive. If it is him, then he let his money get to his head. Maybe Wynn from Vegas?
I’ve been out to half a dozen restaurants already. Felt totally fine and safe. I don’t see what the big deal is. You’re either going to get it or you’re not. Govt officials should allow their constituents to decide for THEMSELVES on how to be safe and whether to risk going out.
gadfly says
Nah, this is Tilman Fertitta. Big bank account – owns NBA Houston Rockets, Golden Nugget Casino, scads of restaurant chains, super-upscale hotels, among other things. TV Show = Billion Dollar Buyer. Just met with Donald J. Trump a couple of days ago re: COVID reopening, as he as fired or furloughed 40K employees in his empire.
rorythedragon says
If this ever happened with President Trump it would have been dragged out long ago and feasted on endlessly by the MSM. We wouldn’t be guessing about who this is, so, next!
montrealaise says
Kevin O’Leary. He’s a very successful investor, has appeared in Shark Tank for several seasons, and a couple of years ago, he announced that he was running for the leadership of the Canadian Conservative Party. He has also put the lie to the myth that all Canadians are polite and nice; he has a reputation as a very nasty, arrogant piece of work.
taracu says
He dropped out because no one would have voted for his arrogant butt. His kind doesn’t fly in Canada. What a Self entitled POS!
Alexis_Rose says
Mark Cuban? If so, that’s disappointing to hear.
Marina says
Mark Cuban. Already ordering a takeout from a local Japanese restaurant after they opened up.

Yes I will go out to restaurants as soon as they start opening..

Mark Cuban?

Mark Cuban…so gross…There was a lot of rumors when he was on that dance competition show about lecherous behavior…so this doesn’t surprise me!
ncd112 says
Mark cuban. Totally disgusting but not surprised.
charlene2345 says
Mark Cuban
My first thought was Mike Bloomberg, but he’s never done any reality business related TV shows that I’m aware of. Also, from what I hear from people who work for his company, he’s a fairly decent guy.
ginger cakes says
I think its Mark Cuban. Some of the sharks find him a little nasty.

bubbasbbq says
I get a Mark Cuban vibe out of this.
spoofbyrd says
Will BG let me back in . Had a brainstorm. A Shark from Shark tank. Kevin O’Leary or Mark Cuban ? I hope not
spoofbyrd says
Oh I forgot. Yes I will visit an eatery dine in sometime probably in July . Have already been to the Drive in at Mickey Dees a few times and I am still here and they were wonderful!
spoofbyrd says
Got me baffled . If it were Bloomberg it would have gotten out & he would never have been Mayor . Howard Shultz dabbled with running for President .Bezos? Elon Musk? But it said meddled ! Bezos has been involved with his wallet . Zuckerberg ?I could say Sheldon Adelson but he is a known A hole & this blind implies unbeknownst

I’m probably way off but it sounds like mr. Wonderful from Shark Tank. He just seems like a garbage human being
kiddvideo says
Mark Cuban.
Optional: I won’t sit in a restaurant for a while, but I’ll order takeout from my favorites (when/if they reopen. They’re completely closed atm, and I found out today one decided to close permanently.)
Weazle says
Guessing Trump due to his spectacular failures at branding anything he thinks he can make a buck from (steaks, for-profit university, casino, airline, the list continues). He also wanted to buy Greenland…but can his tiny hands lift a table??

lunadogmom says
Ex-Presidential Candidate and Professional Kill Joy Michael Bloomberg.
I haven’t stopped patronizing my favorite restaurants. Too many people out there have no manners. Too many screaming children too. I get the food to go even when there isn’t a Corona Virus.
I was raised to admire business men and women. As an adult, the love has died to the point where I don’t want to be anywhere near a rich or famous person. Like the old saying goes, “Familiarity breeds contempt.”
dontpanik says
I think we all know this is Elon Musk. What a D-bag.
badgerette85 says
My first hunch – which I hope am wrong- Is Mark Cuban.
Op- already have. Our restaurants opened up indoors two weeks ago. Dined on the second day; wonderful to visit with my fav bartender and owner!

I will do takeout, but I won’t dine in. I’ll probably wait until July or August, or until there’s a better solution.

Always pay attention to how your date treats the wait staff.

heydaypoetry says
Maybe Kevin O’Leary? He did Dragon’s Den and Shark Tank, and ran for political leadership in Canada.
Though, I think if it was him, the whole “his wife killed someone” thing might be referenced.
Marybel says
Bill Gates. Anti-American creep
jerseymom says
Business “man” – this sounds like Mike Bloomberg.
Optional: It’s been THREE MONTHS since I’ve enjoyed a slice of pizza – a lifetime record for me. I won’t be eating out for a while, probably. Our area is hard hit by Covid-19 and I just don’t feel safe venturing out like I used to. Props to all the first responders, medical personnel, essential workers and those truckers/delivery folks who are keeping this country going!
AuntieViv says

Sounds like Mark Cuban. I am already happily eating in restaurants in my non-bedwetting state.

I will keep with food delivery for a while. In no rush for sit down restaurant
parkland45 says
No idea but I feel a bit squeamish after reading this. Two lowlifes here, that’s for sure.
We’re not going to any eat-in restaurants unless it’s to pick up meals (& it’s a restaurant we trust).
Itsmaryk says
Mark Cuban
No. I don’t mind curbside pick up.

Mark Cuban
I will go out to eat as soon as the stay at home order is lifter in my state and restaurants are allowed to open.
beachchick218 says
Mark Cuban. He seems like a real jerk.
Yes….I will be going anywhere that’s open. Out of 7.7 billion people on earth, there has been 315,000 deaths. Something’s not right with shutting us down and all the fear mongering.
One Love says
Most intelligent comment I’ve seen yet on here!
Cerise94 says
There have been 315.000 deaths because we’re staying at home. We’re preventing a repeat of the Spanish Influenza.
TeacherKat says
Or maybe it just means the shut downs helped slow the number of cases and deaths? My brother is a doctor and his hospital is at capacity for covid-19 patients, including quite a few younger patients and if you are unlucky enough to have bad complications it’s not good…
chicagofix says
Statistically that does seem low. However, consider that the proportion of deaths is only this low because so many areas of the world are following stay home orders. This will rise exponentially if we remove limits on in person interactions. And you are not accounting for the hundreds of thousands more the world over who survived this but now have serious long term side effects including extensive organ damage. That kind of impact will affect our healthcare system in the US for decades to come.
ChattyCat says
“Out of 7.7 billion people on earth, there has been 315,000 deaths.”
Wow. That’s 315,000 HUMAN BEINGS who died lonely deaths battling to breath until they couldn’t. Of these, more Americans have died in comparison to any other country. 315,000 families are heartbroken. Out of respect we shouldn’t treat those who’ve passed as just a number. In Australia we lost amongst the least. We all complied to the restrictions as a supportive gesture to aussies who’ve died.
4sixx2 says
Mark Cuban. He’s a smug *.
I’m ready to get back to normal life NOW but my PA Governor Wolf believes he has more power than should and is acting like a dictator!
mostlylurker says
yes acting in the best welfare of the public ‘s health is very dictatorial. Wolf’s done a solid job. Full disclosure: Im a doctor in PA.
Cricket03 says
Full disclosure Wolf sent elderly people with COVID to nursing homes. That is not doing a good job.
4sixx2 says
MOSTLY, then why are SOME counties, which have very high cases being moved to yellow- such as York and Allegheny while smaller, less infected areas remain Red? It makes zero sense to me. (PS – thank you for your service and dedication to public health. ❤️)
BobNYC says
First, your political comment is out of place. Second, my Pennsylvania governor, Wolf, is acting in the best interest of the residents of the state. And since you brought it up, the medical experts, the epidemiologists, the virologists all agree: opening too soon will be a disaster. Wolf, unlike Donald John Trump, is listening to the knowledgeable people.
4sixx2 says
BOB, this sight is full of gossip guesses & opinions. Don’t lecture me; my comment posted = it’s appropriate. C-19 info is fluid & contrary. And then you insult the President. Typical hypocrisy. Good day, Sir!
funster says
Mark Cuban. Always seemed immature and creepy to me.
Not in any rush to go out to eat. I think I’ll wait til things calm down.
Lby54229 says
Trump?
mostlylurker says
Musk or cuban
Im a doctor. I see what this does even to fools who have turned this into a political statement. No restaurants.
TruePatriot says
Can you tell me if what I heard is true that the virus is microscopic and gets right through non-M95 masks?
Seriously – is this true? I have PhD in history not biology.
pitbull says
Cuban
No Bucks (economics) No Buck Rogers (Healthcare). Not political, just factual. I’m not a fool, doctor with an MBA.
TeaDrinker says
Donald Trump, of course.
4sixx2 says
🙄
PollyMetropolitan says
Don’t think so – it says he’s a big donor. My guess is Cuban. Plus, for as much of a baby Donald can be, he has a sort of good reputation with service staff. And, this kind of event would have been all over the place already.
Sassymom says
Really?! Please.
Steffy44 says
Not. Trump isn’t meddling in politics and he’s not a donor. He’s in. This screams Mr Cuban who has been a big mouth lately, gives money and seems like a nasty piece of work. He sets my radar off as someone not to make mad and I’m a really good judge of people very fast.
