I wouldn't be surprised if the Waiter was rubbish and that's why they were being dicks, or they were being dicks and that's why she was annoyed, the opposite of either or any combination.

We'll never know tho, so.... let's all fight about something else.

I know this was likely a hooters, but acting like a bunch of 15 year olds, with your buddies celebrating a win, thinking you are the shit, is pretty immature. I could only hope mitch was not there, and that they will change their demeanor at future events. Very unprofessional IMO. If I ran pro circuit, these guys would be read the riot act. I don't care or how talented you are. Ask Joey Savatgy, if he would win as a privateer, doubt it.

Relax guys, it's all sorted out now. Mitch mailed her a brand new pair of sneakers.

But again, unless we know what really happened, no need to drag PC through the mud.
Motocrossers are the biggest apologist. Nope, a group of twenty something motocrossers celebrating would never get out of hand.

Maybe the kids today are just that much more mature, we trashed plenty of Dennys after races. No excuses, we were wild mx guys

Personally, I can't believe anyone would misbehave in such a classy joint.
It's basically a Buffalo Wild Wings that has girls showing cleavage and wearing tight shorts serving .... so that kind of behavior should be expected ? Not saying the story is or isn't true.

I'd hate to see what would be written about riders on facebook in the 80s and 90s. Wasting paper towels seems relatively benign.

Win or loss...never a reason to disrespect a server or staff at an establishment that is serving you. They are doing nothing but trying to earn a living. If you want to celebrate and act like immature, unprofessional & over-privileged jerks...do it at the track or a bar or something where everybody else there expects it, not at a public establishment where your behavior is displayed for all the world to see.

No proof that this rant is true...but if it is, Mitch Payton & his staff need to take note.

Not tipping your server is bush league, however.
Betting Mitch quietly makes that 'right.'

Am i the only one who wants to hear the truth to this story and not the side of the waitress that was obviously over worked and stressed out , i feel like her stressful day has led to some blown out of proportion story telling.

We don't know both sides, but why would she make it up? You would be ok having shit thrown at your face? Atleast give her a nice tip!

Hey everyone:

Morgan sent this story to me as a private text message. She did not intend to share this story to anyone, but to let me know what happened.. I am the one who posted her story on our club Facebook page. I've known Morgan since she was one year old. I know her character quite well. She would never make up a story like this.

Morgan has been our 30-second board girl at Hangtown for several years now. She is also a waitress. No. This is not her career. She is, in fact, a college student at CSU Sacramento. And she is quite intelligent. She had no intention to make this public, so please don't trash her.

Her karma statement could have been worded a bit softer, but she was upset. I didn't post it to call out anyone specifically as I respect all teams and riders. What is most valid here is that riders and teams are in the public eye, and their behaviors can cast a poor light on themselves personally, on their team, and on their sponsors.

I am sure any and all people associated with this team did not intend to behave like this. Congratulations to the rider and owner for taking the overall at Hangtown.

I love how some people here dog people who they view to be in shit jobs. Of course they also view people in high end jobs as douchebags and assholes too. How did that saying go??? "Doctors, lawyers and bankers, they are all a bunch of assholes....until you need one."

Comparing a waiter or waitress to a war hero? How the hell do you know he or she isn't a war hero? A lot of them come home to low paying jobs. Hard to believe that people on a MX message board of all places come off as such entitled little fuggers.

Savatgy commented on her story on Facebook:

Versace Savatgy "First off.. This story is not true, far from the truth actually. 1. It was a hooters on a Saturday night, they promote beer and wings. 2. You brought me into this, and I had 3 glasses of water? 3. The service was sub par and very slow. Never once did anyone put blame on you for it being slow. so I would appreciate it if you wrote the real story, and took me out of it. I did nothing"

Think there's a good chance he got singled out just cause he is in the spotlight. Who knows what happened but it seems he handled it pretty well.

Hope I didn't cause the club any grief reposting it. It came up on my feed from the DDNMC public Facebook page so I assume it was done for a reason. Promoters, tracks, dealers, riders, etc. have enough problems with perception and people trying to shut it all down as it is.

This isn't the 70s or 80s anymore, actions have sometimes instantaneous consequences, and the actions of a top team in the area of an event will hurt the local promoter more than anyone. Nobody is going to not send their cylinder to Mitch because of something that happened at a Hooters but the next team might think more about their actions because of something they read.

Not shocked at all. This is actually one of the milder prank stories I've heard
out of Mitch and his crew (and Troy Lee),from screwing around on airlines, to outright
destruction of property. I wonder how funny they would think this kind of behavior
would go down at thier shop.

I would be literally shocked if this Hooters doesn't have an automatic gratuity of like 18% after a certain amount of people per party.

I don't think it was fair for her to call out just Joey and Mitch when it could have been any of the 18 other guys who were in the party causing most of the havoc. That being said, acting like a group of toddlers is not acceptable even at Hooters. I understand emotions were running high because of finally something going right for the PC team, but one of the senior crew members should have kept the party in line.

If you think getting a little out of control at a restaurant after a victory is bad...... You need to go back to the 80's there were restaurants, hotels, rent-a-car companies that would not do business with the moto crowd. I have seen hotels getting shut down after a national because the rooms were so thrashed that they could not be rented out.

Good thing that waitress did not have to put up with myself and my friends antics. It would make what she says PC did look like not a big thing Wink

You would think after a win the team would be happy and nice. You can tell so much about a person by the way they treat waitstaff/anyone below them. How quickly they forget where they came from and some on that pc team will be without a ride next year. Most likely making less than those servers. Some of you in here must like the youtube videos where people do shitty things to others and pull the "hey, it's just a prank bro". Nope, that's just a dbag move.
Cool ID,you friends with rich cain er somthing?

I ,as a top athlete ,would not eat at a place where my antics would get piss or spit in my food,

Even without the antics I'd not eat anywhere my food would be questionable.

My ever meal would be straight up right.

Hi All:

There were a few misunderstandings from both sides. Morgan shared her experience and Mitch Payton has clarified what happened and has made everything right, even taking responsibility for the actions of others not associated with his team - a classy move. Now let's get back to racing.

If her story was sent as a private message, then why is it posted on her fb page with the opening statement, I never use facebook to rant, but this circumstance was something I needed to vent about.?

https://www.facebook.com/morgan.kephart.1?fref=ts

I'm sure she's a nice girl and there is probably some truth to the story, but naming Savatgy publicly isn't all that cool.

People are jumping all over Savatgy for acting immature, but what about that dipshit Khayla J saying: Well let's share the shit out of this and put that yahoo to shame for his behavior. #shared

Really? Shame people for getting a little rowdy after a win in an establishment that serves drinks from young girls with nice tits? That's the stupid pc crowd who wants to bully and shame everyone which is totally immature.

You know, I did some silly things as a kid. Not to the extent it was described here. Somethings I needed to go apologize for and others at a younger age where my parents prompted the apology. I'd be a lot more impressed if Savatgy would learn from and follow Mitch's example. Just a part of this thing we call "growing up".
