The alleged reason for Auburn’s dismissal of WR D’haquille “Duke” Williams has surfaced, and it’s not pretty.
According to an AL.com report, Williams allegedly punched two security guards, a bartender assistant and a patron at a bar following the team’s win over San Jose State on Saturday. The reason? Improper use of sunglasses:
According to the witness, the incident was sparked when a member of Williams’ party was kicked out of Skybar for wearing sunglasses inside, a violation of the bar’s dress code policy. Williams, who the witness said appeared intoxicated, attempted to get his friend back into the bar using his local celebrity status only to be denied.
