Advocate body positivity, Fallon Melillo, must share a shameful experience when she recently turned away from the party bus in Miami because of her appearance.
The 27-year-old was told her size did not allow her to take a bus to the party.
The location of the club party named Daer, which is located inside the Hard Rock Hotel. Group friends get their tickets from EventBrite, and they will take the Miami Party Spring Break Bus Service. When they bought their tickets, they saw a warning: “Sorry, there are no big girls for this party!”
This is already questionable, but in 2021, people probably don’t expect that you’d be turned away from the bus because of your size.

“The door guard is very strict on the appearance. If you have a problem into the previous exclusive club, then this is not for you! Please don’t waste your time or we think that we can make you enter if you don’t meet the qualifications,” said the site.
She clarified, “Actual afternoon club, Daylub Daer, has nothing to do with this party bus service. It’s like the third party company. We really reached to Daer and asked if they did various types of discrimination with weight, and they said , ‘No.’ ”
While Fallon admits it was probably not illegal for them on this, it was still awful service.
“It’s just downright awful, and rude, and humiliating,” said Fallon.

“We ended up going there, and they turned us away at the door because I am plus-size, as you can see,” she did a quick twirl to show her full body on camera.
“I’m bigger than, I guess, the average girl. And they decided to tell us that we can’t get on the party bus.”
The group decided not to take a bus and got a refund. But Fallon still saw this as a terrible experience for someone like her who is an advocate for the body’s front.
On the next video, she clarified once again that she had never had a problem entering the club, like Liv or Daer herself. It was only a party bus that decided to discriminate against their passengers.
It appears that the company had also attempted to switch names more than once and reworded its service description: “A model look is encouraged.”
What in the world is a “model look”? Fallon got frustrated at it also, pointing out that the general size of women is between 12-16, not 2.
So far, she has not been contacted by the hotel or the party bus directly. Weight should be a protected class!
