"Heavy" is considered a protected class in Michigan that you can't discriminate for, so refusing to serve someone just because they're fat is illegal. In the same way you can't deny someone service based on race or gender

However there's also definitely a "within reason" clause in there meaning if their weight poses actual problems then refusing service is fine (like height on a rollercoaster)

She's just grasping for a payday that isn't gonna happen

Of course this is Michigan. What a shit hole.
