Bars, Bouncers, & Fake IDs

[Dragon92]

My school also has a 19 bar age, and when you get into the bar, nobody really cares whether you are 21 or not. I'm 21 now so it doesnt matter, but i remember many times sitting at the bar w/ a big red "Under 21" stamp on my hand.

hey thats a good question. Some friends of mine who are bouncers are more likely to let a lady into who looks underage rather then a guy. In MD for clubs and such you can be 18 on most nites, but you can't always get in like on a saturday or something if you are under 21. Bars in MD, I believe you have to be 21 though.
One of the clubs I go to sometimes(for you marylanders on here Bohagers) for the people who get caught they keep the ID and they have a big umm glass thing with all the peoples id's who they have caught. It's kinda neat though, cause it's soo many ID's. But I am 21 so no worry's for me :P

I know why they do this, because minors aren't buying drinks but it still made me mad. It was almost like paying for a movie just to go hang out somewhere. Ok, rant over

Well, whats worse than that is when they have 18+ night at clubs, and STILL charge you a cover even if you are 21 and presumably..that still makes me sooo mad..

If you have probelms getting into the bars come to Carbondale IL sometime. I was 18 and had an ID of a guy who was 23 and looked NOTHING like me. I used it at least twice a week for 3 years, never even got questioned. I once saw a girl get into the bars on a print card. The card was a plain white card that you put into the printers in the Library. No name or anything on it, just a plain white card. It's a JOKE.

I know in Louisiana, the minimum age to get into a bar is 18. Some have higher ages, but most of them let you in at 18. They put a big X on your hand if you're under 21, and you get a bracelet if you're 21+. Either way, its a really simple system to circumvent. And that's just in Baton Rouge.

I've been to bars in Uptown (New Orleans) that just check to see if you're 18 and that's it. No one really cares past that point once you're inside. Most of the ones there didn't even have a cover charge.

hahah soo true, I go to Tulane so i know all about the uptown scene. All i've gotta say is that it definately spoils you. The most I'll pay to get in to a place is $5 and my drinks better be free or dirt cheap. I don't have a fake, but its pretty easy to get served anyhow. There's nothing better than standing at the bar w. the stamp (or missing a flourescent bracelet) and hearing those magic words.. "what can i get for you?" lol

You hated it?? Why? I can see how it can get annoying (everyone starts to know about everyone) but i'm definately glad i'm there, and i can't wait to get back. Oh and as far as football, u might think u can beat us, but wait, didn't u say the same thing when it came to baseball

I hated it because:
1.) I got screwed over for scholarships because i'm from LA. The administration favors out-of-state kids when it comes to the Deans Honor Scholarship.

2.) My profs were incredibly crappy, especially in light of what I was paying. I've had professors 10xs more intelligent at LSU than all those Ivy grads at Tulane.

There are many other reasons, but those are the major two. I couldn't afford to be miserable at 10K+/year.

BTW, what is the vibe over there for the LSU/Tulane game? At LSU, its crazy, as usual. But Tulane is so full of out-of-staters that most people don't care anymore

Well i guess it was better for you to transfer then, what was your major? As far as the game is concerned, your right about it being mostly out of state and therefore no one is amped, yet at least. The whole LSU vs. Tulane rivalry is more of a Louisiana and southern thing and since we aren't the typical southern school.. lol. But when we do beat y'all, we'll be living it up like no other; gotta get some vindication for being ranked lower than y'all when it came to party schools LOL jk
