LSU junior quarterback Ryan Perrilloux will return to the team Sunday.

LSU junior quarterback Ryan Perrilloux allegedly caused a scene at a local restaurant Sunday, a few days before he was expected to rejoin the team Monday for spring practice. A server at Kona Grill in Perkins Rowe told The Daily Reveille late Tuesday night that Perrilloux arrived at the restaurant 30 minutes after it closed Friday. Perrilloux entered the bar and attempted to order drinks. After he was denied service, Perrilloux began to curse and use racial slurs, the server said. A Kona Grill manager approached Perrilloux, who then cursed the manager. The server said Perrilloux was asked to leave. The police went to the restaurant, but Perrilloux had left by the time any officers arrived. The server said LSU coach Les Miles called the restaurant Saturday to apologize for Perrilloux. "I have no comment," said the owner of Kona Grill. "I've been receiving a lot of calls about that [Monday] and would like to stop receiving calls at the restaurant." The junior quarterback missed practice Tuesday for the second-consecutive day after Miles said this past week that Perrilloux was expected to return to practice on Monday. WJBO reported Tuesday that Perrilloux was not on the practice field because of "an incident over the weekend at a local restaurant." Col. Ricky Adams of the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's office said there was no information about Perrilloux or Kona Grill in the sheriff's database.

Editor's Note: The incident was initially listed as Friday. More sources have confirmed it was Sunday, rather than it was Friday.
