Ah, but use of that right can sometimes get you a bad reputation, particularly when you ban a certain church group from coming in after services on Sunday because they refuse to tip, leave a god-awful mess, release their hounds misbehaved children into the restaurant without supervision, demand that food for the entire table be given to them for free because of a minor problem with one of the meals caused by the customer not reading the menu, and sit for hours on end just drinking water while other customers wait for a table. You can't just kick these people out and tell them never to return, because they'll forever smear your restaurant to their friends.
But if we won the lottery, we wouldn't care whether the restaurant succeeded or failed, and would have absolutely no problem throwing these people out by the seat of their Sunday best pants and throwing their food and miserable, snot-nosed hellion brats out with them.
