Subway Keeps Phelps 'In Our Plans'
February 8, 2009
The restaurant chain said last week it has decided to accept the apology by 14-time Olympic gold-medal winner Michael Phelps following his photographed use of a bong to smoke marijuana.
"Like most Americans, and like Michael Phelps himself, we were disappointed in his behavior," Subway said in a statement. "Also like most Americans, we accept his apology. Moving forward, he remains
in our plans."--Nina Lentini
