Perhaps it was discrimination but I'd be careful about throwing around those accusations simply because someone else got in free and you didn't. There could be 100's reasons that it occured (and, yes, one of them actually is discrimination).

I don't know what defines discrimination, I was told this by someone else.
What happened is, the first day I presented my card and was allowed in.
But the principal saw me come in and sent the doorkeeper to get the money:
"Mr. principal says we don't honor these cards." This is his right. But the next day a friend went to the tournament, presented his card, and was allowed in. Principal was standing there, and announced, "Yeah, this card is okay, but there's another guy who will probably be here later," called my by name, "don't accept his card." Sounds kinda discriminatory to me, but I am not an attorney, and have not stayed at Holiday Inn Express recently. By the way, the people there know their principal by now, so the guy let me in with my card anyway.
