Lounge Acts Spark Misplaced Outrage

A misinformed tweet fired up the easily-ignited social media outrage machine when it was incorrectly assumed the White Sox had erased all memorials to a beloved long-term employee, Loretta Micele. But what is really problematic is naming a drinking area after a man with multiple DUIs on his record.

This legit pissed me off. This was formerly named Loretta’s Lounge after Loretta Micele. She worked concessions for the Sox for 60 years. They dedicated it to her during the 2005 World Series. She gave so much to the organization and replacing her name to that of TLR is shameful. pic.twitter.com/mecpWbTMoU
