Allegedly if you carry a ladder they let you in anywhere.

Allegedly if you carry a ladder they let you in anywhere.
- m463 2y agoI wonder if a clipboard or a ladder would work better with the bouncers at a club.
- mrmetanoia 2y agoDon't the bouncers usually have the clipboards? And wouldn't they be aware of other people of clipboard status by face/name? seeing a rogue clipboard might prompt questions and credential requests. Clipboards on strangers make me curious, ladders make me glad someone else called to have whatever it is fixed.
- janekm 2y agoA club is one of the few places where this strategy won't work, unless there's an emergency (which the bouncers would obviously know about) the only people who would show up are from the sound and light company whom the bouncers already know.
- gsck 2y agoAlways keep a crew shirt handy, never know when you are going to need to sneak into an event!
- CoastalCoder 2y agoI wonder if posing as health inspector or liquor board might work.
- Mountain_Skies 2y agoFire inspector because they are responsible for doing spot checks on crowd sizes. I've been in a club before that was shut down because the fire inspector came in and counted it to be over capacity. The only problem with this plan, beside any kind of penalties for impersonating an emergency official, is the bouncer might get suspicious when he sees you on the dance floor with a drink in your hand.
- taneq 2y agoAt a club you need jeans and a crew-looking t-shirt. Bonus points for ear plugs.
- leansensei 2y agoDepends on the slope.
- Brajeshwar 2y agoGulp! With recent events, this needs additional retrospection.
- pjc50 2y agoUnlikely to change. Neither is open carry. Mass shootings are just part of the furniture.
- latexr 2y ago> Mass shootings are just part of the furniture. In the USA, not the rest of the world. Making that distinction because the high visibility vest trick will also work in most other (western?) countries.
- aa_is_op 2y ago@latexr It will also work in non-western countries too... as long as you're the obvious skin color or race. I doubt a white man in Nigeria with a high-viz vest is not gonna attract everyone's attention :)))))))
- netsharc 2y agoIf that guy was wearing black and maybe some "Police" sign (even home-made) on him, not many would've given him a second notice...
- Hikikomori 2y agoGood guy with a ladder.
