Let’s be honest, most people think the drinking age being 21 is completely bogus- which is why so many people break it. You can go fight in a war, vote for the next president, spend time in jail, but unless your 21, drinking a beer at a bar can be as hard as trying to get a drunken erection. Here are some tips for the younger readers out there to get a head start on the pack. Remember as with everything, confidence is key, so kids – fake it till you make it.
- Dress decently – You don’t have to run off and steal a suit and tie from your dad’s closet, but don’t come prancing in wearing your Nikes from soccer practice and a “San Valley High” sweatshirt. Even if you were 21, dressing like that, I wouldn’t want you in my bar.
- Talk with the bouncer – As you hand him your bogus ID, it always helps to be friendly, confident, and ask him a question as inspects it. This will divert his attention making him less attentive. Classics are “How’s the crowd looking tonight?!” or “Is it normally this crowded? It’s my first time here.” Basically, any question which requires more then one word to answer works well.
- Tip the bartender – It’s already a given to tip the bartender, but giving a hefty first drink tip always helps when your underage. This way, even if he/she suspects something, he/she might keep quiet because of the nice tip. Bonus: if you tip a lot and the bar is crowded, generally the bartender will remember and if he/she sees you, will sometimes serve you before others.
- Go around with girls – Alright, I’m not talking about your fat girl friends from math class, or the girl who sits in the corner of the library eating chocolate bars, but go out with a group of presentable attractive girls. Not only is it easier to get into bars/clubs, but you look like the man.
- Hold your liquor – You might have gotten in the bar, but if you act like an amateur, you can just as easily be thrown out. It is not a house party, so don’t go around with your drunken college buddies screaming and spilling drinks on people. And no, not everyone does Jaeger Bombs.
