But she basically, yeah, she wouldn’t give me the benefit of the doubt, knowing that I didn’t look like I was over 21 and not knowing who I was.

Curry also took the time to explain that maybe the waitress did not watch basketball and that is why she did not recognize him.

However, they agreed that the waitress was adhering to her duties and not giving any alcohol to underage children. Luckily, the manager was there.
