WASHINGTON (WMAL)–A restaurant in Fairfax is taking a stand when it comes to the NFL protest of the National Anthem.

Fat Tuesday’s, which is located at 10673 Braddock Rd. says games will no longer be shown there.

In a post on facebook titled “Enough is enough,  RL and Karen Butler say: ” As proud parents of an active duty member of the US Army and a veteran of Afghanistan, we stand on the side of our brave men & women in uniform not the men in sports costumes that take a knee and disrespect our country, our National Anthem, our military and our veterans.  We place a much higher value on our great country then any sporting event. Therefore, we will not be showing any NFL games at Fat Tuesday’s until there is a stop to this foolishness. ”
