Papa John’s Racist Voicemail Rant – Full Audio and Transcript
Papa John’s Racist Voicemail Rant. Papa John’s Chairman and CEO John Schnatter apologized to a customer in Sanford, Fla., for a racist rant a Papa John’s delivery man inadvertently left on the customer’s voicemail.
After he delivered a pizza to the Sanford customer and his wife Sunday evening, the delivery man “butt dialed” the customer and left a voicemail message laden with racial slurs as he complained about his tip.
The customer posted a video on YouTube in which he showed the pizza delivery receipt, explaining he and his wife tipped 21 percent, “as usual.” Read the rant below.
Inaudible speaking- sounds like two people talking for about a minute and thirty seconds
“You back??”
“Yea!”
“Did he tip you?”
“Nope, not at all”
“I guess that’s the only requirement for being a Nigger in Sanford. Yea.. They give me five bucks there-fine outstanding African American gentleman of the community”
(Laughs..getting closer)
“Well just tip me this f***kin Nigger. I’m like singing opera all the way home. I was like. “Niggaaaa….Nigga. Nigga-ro! Nigga-ro! Niiiiiigggggggaaaaaaa-roooooooooo!”
(Laughs again) …”Oh my God…”
“I got another Nigger song too. It’s an old one. It’s an instrumental but I put words to it, and its “Nigga-nig Nigga-nig Nigga-nig (laughs again) Nigga-nig Nigga-a-Nigger! F*ckin F*ckin F*ckin a Nig-a Nigger! (Keeps going) Nigga-nig Nigga-nig Nigga-nig (laughs again) Nigga-nig Nigger-a-Nigger! F*ckin F*ckin F*ckin a Nig-a Nigger! (Keeps going, coworkers laughing) Nigga-nig Nigga-nig Nigga-nig (really laughing now) Nigga-nig Nigga-a-Nigger! F*ckin F*ckin F*ckin a Nig-a Nigger! (Finale) F*ck F*ck F*ck the Nigger! He is one real big f*cking Nigger. Sometimes you need a two person for that (everyone bursts out in laughter).”
“Was this a big order, really far away, and was he really black?”
“Yea. Yea. So black that f*cking fire flies follow him around in the daytime. (everyone laughs)”
“Oh my God. Wow. So Black…Fire flies…”
“Really f*cking stupid”
“You leaving now?”
“No”
“No?…”
“What you want?”
“Cinnamon Sticks and a large pepperoni pizza”
“Okay”
“You can ring up one of those online”
“Yes I am!”
Conversation becomes inaudible at this point…but you get our drift…
“Three Cheese and Pepperoni…”
