A Milwaukee taco joint has issued an apology to Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who waited around but was never seated just hours after he led his team to a crucial Game 4 victory.
A Bucks fan posted a photo of the Greek Freak at the BelAir Cantina on twitter shortly after last night's win, saying that he waited for a table for 10 minutes but ultimately left when no one helped him. After the post spread, BelAir Cantina released an apology on its Twitter and Facebook pages for not finding Antetokounmpo a seat in a timely manner.
"We are very sorry we weren't able to seat Giannis Antetokounmpo in as timely manner as we would have hoped," the statement said. "The Milwaukee Bucks' big win, thanks to his tip in and the team's great play, combined with today's spring weather had people turn out in droves to celebrate and we had quite a wait. We were honored he came in for a celebratory meal, and wish we would have accommodated him right away."
Antetokounmpo's girlfriend, Mariah Riddlesprigger, then responded on Twitter to say everything was all good - they just had to settle for some pizza instead.
The Greek Freak had 27 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, including the game-winning tip-in with 5.1 seconds left which sets up a Game 5 in Boston tomorrow night. That game, airing on NBA TV, is scheduled to tipoff at 7:00pm ET on Tuesday.
