'Duck Dynasty' star Jase Robertson kicked out of New York City hotel after being confused for homeless man
The A&E reality show star claims he was the victim of 'facial-profiling' after a New York hotel employee did not believe he was a guest there.
"Duck Dynasty" star Jase Robertson fell victim to some facial profiling.
The famed family from the A&E hit show stopped by "Live! With Kelly and Michael" Wednesday morning to dish details on their reality series and their time spent in New York City this week while promoting its fourth season.
Robertson told the audience that he had just been kicked out of the hotel he was staying at in the Big Apple because an employee mistook him for a homeless man.
"The first thing that happened to me at the hotel was I got escorted out," Robertson said of what he called a "facial-profiling deal," as the Louisiana clan is known for their long beards.
Robertson continued to explain that the employees simply had no idea who he was.
"I asked where the bathroom was and he said, 'Right this way, sir.' He was very nice, he walked me outside, pointed down the road and said, 'Good luck.'"
"So I circled back around and my wife said, 'What happened?' and I just said I just got kicked out."
Robertson took the situation with stride and continued to stay at the hotel despite the misunderstanding.
The fourth season premiere of "Duck Dynasty," the show that focuses on the Robertson's who invented and now market the definitive duck call, drew 11.8 million viewers making it the most-watched nonfiction show in the history of cable television.
