OPINION
WIDENER, Circuit Judge:

The plaintiffs, an extended black family, stopped to eat at a Waffle House restaurant in Walterboro, South Carolina. There, one of the plaintiffs, Mark Lander, allegedly was told that the restaurant didn’t serve black people.1 He then collected his family, who had not heard the remark, and left the restaurant.
