Robert Sacre is tall, gets free dinner at BierBeisl restaurant
On Monday night Lakers center Robert Sacre received a free dinner at Beverly Hills authentic Austrian restaurant BierBeisl.
Sacre, who stands an even 7 feet tall, took advantage of his stature. BierBeisl’s chef/owner Bernhard Mairinger is running a promotion in June where anyone taller than the 6-7 Mairinger dines for free.
The restaurant expects to have former Laker John Salley later in the month, along with other “NBA greats.â€
Sacre will hit free agency in July. If the Lakers make an expected qualifying of $988,872, Sacre will be a restricted free agent.
The Gonzaga product wasn’t part of the team’s regular rotation but was a dedicated practice player and a positive influence in the locker room with an infectious, positive attitude.
BierBeisl promises a free meal to any man or woman with the requisite height, although they will be measured without shoes to qualify (the rules will be applied more leniently to women).
