The incident happened at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on Dec. 30, where the musician claimed a handful of African-American employees mocked his name after he had ordered — calling him “Bow-Bow,” “Boo-Boo,” and “Bo-Bo.” Mistakenly ringing his order in twice, one of the group called for him when his food was ready for a second time. That’s when Bice allegedly heard an employee yell, “He’s already got his — that white boy there.”

Here is the article white boys
Any of you baws ever been called a "white boy" at your local chicken establishment?

The article says he's 41.

A 41 year old dude cried because he was picked on.

Is he a white boy? If so, what's the problem?

(I get the double standard angle, but white boy is a pretty great thing to be.)

This happens every time I go to Popeyes. I thought it was their thing, like The Varsity in Atlanta says "What'll ya have?" And Popeyes says "Here ya go white boy."

Those spicy legs and biscuits are worth it.

As a white male who was born in Louisiana & spent my first 33 years there, I would call this a common occurrence. You get used to it.

I've been called a 'racist white-arse bitch', but at Popeye's, they know what I want when I hit the door.

at making any kind of hoopla over being called white boy. I don't know if I've been called white boy at a Popeye's or not, but considering the racial makeup of the entire store on occasions I've been in there, I don't see why the hell not.

Of all the things that will have me in tears, being called "white" is not one of them. Hell, even being called "boy" wouldn't do it.

“If the tables had been turned and I, as a white male, treated any person of ethnicity any way resembling how she spoke to and treated me, I’d be considered insensitive and racist,” Bice wrote in a lengthy Facebook post about the incident. “Why is it that three or four Popeyes employees can openly mock a courteous PAYING customer in front of an airport terminal of people without any recourse and no apology?”

Did he really expect good service at Popeye's? It is to laugh. The great chicken comes with with awful service, it is the Popeye's experience.
