SHERMAN, Texas — For the first time Friday, Marriott unveiled specific details about a female employee’s accusation against Michael Irvin in a hotel-lobby conversation that occurred in Phoenix last month, the account portraying the former Cowboys wide receiver’s actions as drunken and at times aggressive flirtation that included a lewd comment.
Marriott disclosed the account in a motion filed in federal court. According to the document, which The Dallas Morning News obtained, Irvin “flagged down” the woman, who is a staffer at Renaissance Phoenix Downtown, on Feb. 5 while she walked from the lobby’s bar area in the normal course of her job.
Irvin asked what she did for work, told her he found her attractive, shook her hand and introduced himself as Michael, according to the document. When she said that she didn’t follow the NFL, he directed her to search his name on the internet sometime.
