Jase Robertson of “Duck Dynasty” sports a long beard and often wears clothes that are simple and true to his rural Louisiana roots. So when he and his family stayed at an exclusive hotel in New York, an employee thought that Robertson was a homeless man.
During an episode of “LIVE! with Kelly and Michael,” Robertson discussed how he was kicked out of a hotel because of his appearance. While in the lobby, Robertson asked an employee to point him in the direction of the restroom. However, the employee walked Robertson outside and told him to walk down the street and told him, “Good luck.”
Robertson believes he was “facially-profiled,” but he remained at the hotel and didn’t file a report. “Duck Dynasty,” a show about Robertson and his duck call business, is one of the most successful reality TV shows and premiered its fourth season to 11.8 million viewers.
