Maurice Greene holds several world records, two Olympic gold medals and was just on "Dancing with the Stars." What he doesn't have: The clout to get past the douche doorman who's already denied Chuck Liddell, Seth MacFarlane and a Barack look-alike.

2. I have a suspicion that denying "celebrities" from time to time is an incredibly smart marketing move. It creates a greater brand, a greater desire to "get inside" which they are making seem like the end of the rainbow. The fallout goes to the 60K a year door guy, who is somewhat anonymous. The club managers and owners can always blame the fallguy. "We did not know a recent celebrity from Dancing With The Stars who happens to own world records and two American gold medals was outside. That damn doorguy of ours was only doing his job. We will speak to him."
And then its over, until they dont let Oprah in.

3. Yeah, wow...it's really quite shocking that no one cared who Maurice Green is. The only real tragedy here is that Chuck Liddel and Seth MacFarlane were put into the same category as this G-List athlete.

4. Speaking as a Doorman @ a popular Club myself, I wouldn't have let him in either. Take a look at his Buddy/BodyGuard. Is that someone you want in your esablishment? Hell, he'd scare and/or make the other Patrons very uncomfortable. I/we get Celebrities as well, but your Crew must meet the "Dresscode" too. Nothing personal.
