New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram claims he and three of his teammates were denied entry to a London nightclub Monday night because they were deemed to be “too urban.”
Mark Ingram, Saints teammates turned away by London nightclub for being ‘too urban’
“They told us they were ‘six big guys’ that are too ‘Urban.’”
Ingram said he and a group that included Saints defensive backs Vonn Bell, B.W. Webb, Sterling Moore, and two others, had reservations at Cirque le Soir, but were turned away anyway.
The Saints are set to play the Miami Dolphins in London during the 2017 NFL season, and Ingram tweeted that the trip didn’t ruin his excitement about eventually playing overseas. He also spent his Tuesday taking in the annual Royal Shrovetide Football match.
Press Association Sport — a news agency in the United Kingdom — reached out to Cirque le Soir for comment, but hasn’t yet received a response.
