That first bar with the dude not catching the fake ID makes me mad. I worked in places where ID was checked for a while, and I always had a good rep for not letting underage folks buy stuff. Had a collection of fake IDs at one place. Learn what you're supposed to look for; it really isn't that hard when you put some effort into it.
I'm from new orleans, the first bar, TJ quills, was the first ever episode of the show and came out when I was a senior in high school. we went there all the time, even saw some class mates in the episode
It's not hard at all to tell a fake ID from a real one, most kids don't get the highest quality ones. The thing is a lot of bars know they're fake and let them in anyway.
Chase, the stepson/ manager of tradewinds was my old manager when i worked at the casino up there (before he left to work at tradewinds). So funny to see. He is happily married and a dad of two now!

Lol simple syrup is just sugar and water. There's definitely no excuse to be out of that: 1. Combine equal parts sugar and water in a medium saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Allow to cool. 2. Refrigerate in a sterile, sealed container. 3. "They" say it's good for a month. Professionals would label the container with what it is and the expiration date.
@@daybreak2102 yup and that's really the right way to do it! It (usually) costs less and is better quality. Especially for things like syrups and juice!
Places that feature heavy metal or punk bands don't have to be sh!t holes! I think some bar and club owners think it should be like the 70s or 80s and dark, sticky, scummy, smells like sweat and urine even outside the bathroom. It doesn't need to be that way to attract certain types of customers.

2:03 I don't work in a bar, so unless I'm mistaken one way to tell a fake ID is simply to "wiggle" the ID! Why? Because a real ID has a HOLOGRAM on it! You know, something that can't be FAKED!
I don't know how profitable a uni bar can really be. The only busy bar i ever saw as a student was u bar that was only busy on Wednesdays because pints were 5 bucks
I don't know I went to college in Burlington and all the college bars were pretty popular Thursday through Saturday, and the rest of the days usually catered to the older population.
I was never really into the bar scene, even in my college days. But I remember that the few times I did go out on a Saturday night, the place was SLAMMED. I guess college bars just make all their money on the weekends?
Where did you go to university? I've attended or worked at several, in settings from relatively small towns to relatively large cities, and the bars that are decent are moderately busy Mon-Thu and jam-packed on Fri-Sat. The exception was in England, where the pubs (being quite different from American bars) were more steadily busy unless they were near the clubs: but then, the English don't tend to binge drink at uni quite like Americans do, ime.

I can see where you’re coming from, but even if that were the case, it ruins the professionalism a business owner’s supposed to have. Sure, Hooters (which is a restaurant chain) does something similar to that, the waitresses have their tits & cheeks hanging out, but at the same time, they remain professional by being clothed. Unless a bar also pairs as a strip club, it’s unprofessional regardless.
I hate to admit it, but after TJ's Quill renovation and fix up going there now as a 19 year old in 2024 they went back to normal. They changed their name back and still let people (like me) in but literally me and my girl friends went and it was dead so we left 15 minutes later.
of course the up tight valley girls arn't going to enjoy themselves at a heavy metal bar, its not the bar intended demographic. They would be better off going to hipster bar, and brewery.
i was in a local restaurant the ladies bathroom was amess so i told them i would call the local health dep on them if they did not clean the bathroom .
That metal bar has a lot of problems that are unacceptable, but there's plenty of college students who are into metal and alt culture that they could have sent for recon. The three ladies they sent are clearly not interested in that scene and it makes it seem bad by default
