zidane's child Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Similar to the bouncers thread about getting knocked back and the excuse they give you. Have you ever been barred from a shop, club, bar etc and for what reasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacDuffman Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Was barred from Cledens Bar in Kilbowie Road in 1978 for tearing up beermats. Was 16 at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 When I worked for Wetherspoons the staff from my pub were banned by our regional manager from drinking in any other Wetherspoons after a staff night out went a bit wrong. Does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richey Edwards Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I was banned from IKEA in Bielefeld for having a scrap when I was 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Nosejob Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 As far as I am aware, I am still banned from Olivers (the bakers/cafe) in Stirling following an incident in my student days in the 1980s. The staff were unimpressed with my repeated displays of launching plastic stirrers from the empty tapered mug my coffee had been served in and promptly requested that I leave the premises, never to return. The shop is now shut, so I chalk that down as a victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Banned from Belfast Superbowl in the mid nineties for figuring out how to empty one of their fruit machines and doing so at every opportunity. Went back for a game of bowls a good 6 years later and the same jobsworth turned me away. I think my ban has now expired. Although Belfast Superbowl has since been flattened so it's no use to me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I got banned from Jumpin Jaks in Dumfries, after walking behind one of the bars that wasn't being used that night, and proceeding to hand out free bottles to my mates. Once wasn't enough though, I stupidly returned several times for more before being wrestled out after trying to pull a pint. My initial denial was hindering by the amount of bottle tops lying on the floor the other side of the bar, where my mates were standing. I got dragged in to an office by a couple of bouncers whilst CCTV was being reviewed. I was then informed I owed money for 30 bottles of VK and a pint of lager, around £100 if I recall, or I was barred for life. Goodbye was the response, as I was kindly escorted from the building.

Estragon Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I have the dubious honour of currently operating under a life-ban from the Garage in Kilmarnock. Acquiring one is an almost impossible task. Myself and another party asked to go in to use the cigarette machine on the day that Killie stayed up at Falkirk's expense. While in, we ordered a drink - prompting a furious reaction from the bouncer in charge. Cue being thrown out, and informed of said ban. I tried to get in later that night (after craftily removing my glasses) - and have since tried on one further occasion - without "success". Hate to sound like sour grapes, but I don't feel as though I'm hugely missing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boghead ranter Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I got barred from Greggs in Stenhousemuir. Went in one day for 3 things. The 2 females behind the counter were up to the usual - having a conversation and trying not to let customers disrupt it. Was asked what I wanted, gave her my list of 3 things while she was more intent on keeping the gossip going. She came back with one thing, and h ad to ask what the other 2 were. Informed her again. She came back with only one thing again, and asked if there was 'anything else'? I replied with the 1 item I still wanted "and your full attention would be lovely". Place froze over at that point, and the entire queue behind me went silent. I received my third item, paid what was due, and as I was leaving, a third burd, who I presume was the shop authority figure hollered "and please don;t come back, we don't need customers like you". I've been back since, several times. That's how I roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillinger Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Yes, barred from a bar for two weeks because I sat in a seat that had been damaged. I didn't do it. The woman manager barred me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I was barred from a pub I have never been in Walking home one night past a row of pubs stone cold sober, 2 guys went passed and booted over a bin, I walked past it and 50 yards down the road some guy appeared from a pub doorway wearing an apron and started roaring at me to go and pick the bin up, he went totally off his nut calling me a useless wee cnut I managed to blurt out, "I never touched the bin yah old dick" at which point he told me an approximation of I was never to come in his pub again. My opinion is the same now as it was then, he can poke his pub up his bum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
