Stupid Ass Signs

In a pub the other day and there was a sign behind the bar saying "anyone who appears drunk to the bar staff will be asked to leave the premises"!! Another guy told me he was in one place with a sign reading "anyone seen to be jackpoting fruit machines will be politely asked to leave the premises"!! What the fuck is going on with this world???

if your in a pub and you sit and get drunk its ok. But if you walk in a pub and your smashed then they should not serve you as they can be Fined £80. Dont know why they just can. Its some order thing a landlord was tellin me. Plenty of pubs now have that sign up.

As for the Jackpottin fruitys????? Bit silly that

they should of just put Locals only on the machine. Now I have seen that. I played as I thought to myself "as Im standing in front of it, Im local to it"

You can get fined up to £20,000 and/or six months in jail for serious breaches.

Do me a favour scotty and take your own advice mate

You are probably about 2 foot nothing with a small dick and no bird (probably ginger hair too judging by the attitude). I read one of you threads the other day crying like a bitch cause someone won't drop you an empty lol, don't like it then fuck off lol

I've seen that sign in numerous pub that states that if someone appears to be drunk, they'll be asked to leave the premises.

The fruitie sign is out of order because the glass shows you very clearly what prizes are available on that game. If £70 is on the glass, then it's a potential prize.

Mr Move It- I just get pissed off with landlords constantly crying wanting to know why so many pubs are going to the wall and then the same landlords have bad attitudes with their customers!!

A landlord complaining about someone very drunk is like KFC saying they won't serve a fat cunt, it's that simple.

licensing law states that you cannot serve anyone under the influence of alcohol...

you can be drunk, but not showing any excessive emotion/movement inability..

fines for the person buying/selling and owning the point of sale are quite hefty, i believe the spot fine for sale to someone iunder the influence is £80, maximum fine on first instance is £50,000 and can be prison time for reoffenders..

you can be given an order by the police to make you go home/leave the area, but if you are drunk you'll get shoved in the cells/stomach pump at hospital..

I made a thread a couple of years ago about a sign over the machines at the the Varsity bar in Bolton.

As said, it's a joke - just uneducated pricks being too defensive. If you don't want the hassle of winners, don't site fruit machines.

Enjoy less free holidays. Or don't enjoy.

I see what peeps are saying, but theres a difference between someone coming in and getting hammered with his mates throughout the evening and someone stumbling into the bar at half 11, barely able to stand, yelling their head off and expecting to get served.

We have 1 or 2 who come in most nights and have a few, and at the weekends they will probably be there from open till close pretty much, but all they do is chat happily to people when hammered and eventually doze off quietly in the corner, last orders bell then wakes em up, they sup whats left of their drink and wobble off home, not a mite of trouble, because we know them, so we let em get on with it and its fine.
