A cigar lounge in League City, Texas has caused quite a stir over its response to Colin Kaepernick's national anthem protest.

Earlier this month, the Man Cave Cigar Lounge came up with the idea to use the San Francisco 49ers quarterback's jersey and some duct tape to create a makeshift doormat for their third anniversary celebration.

"Everybody who walked in would kind of wipe their feet on it," general manager Clint Denny told Dana Guthrie of the Houston Chronicle, adding that while Kaepernick has the right to protest how he wants, "we have the right to disagree."
