An Indiana team.

Excellent know that you've seen that before but what was running through your mind when you first sold out apology.

I was really glad that he came forward and made a statement because what happened with when he came to the -- there wasn't so much about.

Chick -- it was about how one human being to treat another and being in the hospitality industry you dealer lots of typical customers on a daily makes sense and he's actually not the first I've encountered but he was the first that -- to videotape the attack them.

We should -- each other.

It was hard here in those things about that they attacked about me in the company that I worked for but.

I'm just really glad that I was prepared and that their training and upbringing I've had.

Allowed me to get through that will -- a half where you.

Do anything hateful -- return to someone well -- I'm just gonna run a brief.

She was polite she was nice I think she's a hero.

She's a hero could she took it a lot of us wouldn't want to reach over their grab that guy in his car and pull him out.

And dump the water on and she was polite and kind she is the epitome of what chick -- tell -- employees to be.

I think if -- I says I think the governor got it dead right right.
