Ronny Turiaf isn't a jerk

I'll give Laker backup power forward (neither scrub nor star, for those who don't know) Ronny Turiaf credit for this. He walks up to a club in LA trying to get in, and he's told that he can't without a reservation.

So what does he do? He turns around and walks away. How many athletes would do that?

Later, though, his buddy goes up and pulls the Laker card and is still denied. The question is whether Turiaf told him to do it or not. I can't figure that out, so I'll give Turiaf the benefit of the doubt.
