Florida School Under Fire After Taking Elementary School Kids on a Field Trip to Gay Bar

Photos shared online show the kids inside the bar, which has rainbow-colored decor and adult-themed menu items like Naked Sweaty Lovin' chicken tenders "marinated in Rosie's special 'Smack My Cheeks and Make 'em Rosy' sauce."

A Florida elementary school has come under fire after taking grade-school students on a field trip to a gay bar that serves sexual pun-laden menu items like Rhoda Cowboy and Ivana Hooker.

Pictures of youngsters from Wilton Manors Elementary School in Fort Lauderdale at Rosie's Bar and Grill, a popular LGBTQ+ hangout, were shared online by Sarah Leonardi, a member of the Broward County School Board, who said that she was "SO honored to be invited to chaperone Wilton Manors Elementary's field trip to the incredible Rosie's!"

"The students and I had a fun walk over and learned a lot about our community! A huge thank you to Rosie's Bar and Grill for hosting this special field trip every year!" Leonardi wrote.

However, netizens have questioned whether a bar, LGBTQ+ or not, is a suitable location for a field trip for young children in the first place.

I'm sick of seeing children be the target of predatory behaviour. Some of these sick freaks try to be slick and subtle about it, too.

Kids have no business being in places like this. Gay bar, straight bar, whatever. No. https://t.co/ZpXnbh98b5

I guess a strip club is next? This is shameful.

Now I’m going to have to get involved. My kids are in college and I thought I was done. I hoped Broward would stay out of the insanity, but here we are 😒 pic.twitter.com/gswPoybMoh

"Regardless if it’s a gay bar or not….it’s a bar!! Why are kids going on a field trip TO A BAR?!?!," one Twitter user exclaimed.

People that want to talk about sexuality with small children are probably deeply disturbed or child groomers, probably both.

A bar!??? Why are the kids going to a bar? Zoo closed? Museum closed? Anything other then a bar closed?

Pretty sure learning about a coal mine and how they work/what they do is a lot more important than reading shit like this on a bar wall. pic.twitter.com/AfDjwktbL1

The menu of Rosie's Bar & Grill includes vodka and martini-based cocktails, like "Strawberry Grapefruit Vodka-Rita," and such dishes as "Young Ranch Hand," "Ivana Hooker," and "The Big Dripper Wrap," according to the establishment's website.

We hope, at least, that the children were not served the same menu.
