Former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms says she was denied service at a restaurant because she wore leggings

Former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms said she was turned away from a local restaurant because of her outfit.

Bottoms shared a Twitter post on Friday afternoon in which she said the alleged incident happened at The Capital Grille at Perimeter Mall.

"I was just turned away at @CapitalGrille at Perimeter Mall because I have on leggings," Bottoms, 52, wrote.

The tweet garnered more than 18,000 likes and more than 5,400 comments at the time of publishing, some of which pointed out that The Capital Grille has a dress code. The restaurant's website notes that gym attire, tank tops, hats, clothing with offensive language or images, and exposed garments are prohibited.

Her making a big deal about being turned away because she did not meet dress code is a desperate cry for relevance.
