How common is this?

How bad is it?

sounds sweet if you get away w/ it.

but i don't know, as i am 20, and thus am not allowed to drink w/ the common folk.

10/23/2007 1:24:42 AM

^I'm thinking back to the times when I was underage.

I didn't go to bars that often, but I did a few times in high school.

I would get so excited/nervous about drinking in a bar and get really drunk.

And I'm just now realizing I don't think I ever paid my tab, especially when I was in Europe...

And I feel really, really bad about it.

10/23/2007 1:28:28 AM

ahahahah, i looked at that was like "why"?

then I remembered the drinking age is 21

that's really retarded

10/23/2007 1:28:46 AM

why dwell on shit that happened a long time ago that makes you feel shitty

10/23/2007 1:29:03 AM

So who else has done this?

10/23/2007 1:29:37 AM

^^^^You have boobs, it's cool...

lol, jackass.

(not that i'm a heavy drinker at all)

has happened to me a couple times but only at local bars that im a "regular" at... so its no big deal, they just add the tab on to my tab the next time i come in.

ive never done it somewhere else though. its just a shitty thing to do to the bartenders.


what i've noticed more is that people run up big tabs and get shitfaced... then don't leave a tip. there were a couple guys at woodys last night in cary who drank all afternoon and each had tabs over $100.... they paid the tab but didn't leave a tip. that's bullshit too.

^^^drunknloaded, this is what I do.

I stay up all night thinking of all the uncool shit I've done in my life--from the innocent mistakes to the completely abhorrent, life-changing fuck-ups.

Life really is too short for regrets. So I have to squeeze them in by forgoing sleep.

^Yeah, I'm the opposite of those guys. If I'm drunk and already spending too much on booze, I tend to say fuck it and go overboard on the tip, too.

10/23/2007 1:43:35 AM

well it's official... i can't have children.

10/23/2007 1:45:27 AM

ha, my mom and i got so smashed in cancoon we left and forgot about the tab. Walked a few blocks, remembered, walked back, and then got a bunch of shots for being nice enough to come back

10/23/2007 1:48:19 AM

good night out w/ the mom, i s'pose.

10/23/2007 1:53:48 AM

I did it once, but I felt bad and wanted to continue being able to patron that bar so I paid up the next day

10/23/2007 1:55:24 AM

we were at Carlos and Charlies. Got some great pictures somewhere

10/23/2007 2:00:15 AM

pics or it didn't happen.

10/23/2007 2:01:42 AM

^^I wish my mom would get drunk with me. As it is now, she has like a half glass of wine and is like, "Whoa, I think I've reached my limit..."

And free shots are the best. And the worst. Someone always gets sick once the free shots come out.

10/23/2007 2:25:36 AM

its really damn irritating when you're the server/bartender that gets stuck with it. especially since it came out of MY pocket every time it happened.

10/23/2007 2:26:37 AM

my roommate did this in greenville, left his ID and a credit card with the bar. Had a friend go pick it up and mail it to raleigh.

10/23/2007 7:59:14 AM

they normally still charge the card if its left all night and add in a 12% tip if you leave it

so i dont think its a good idea to leave your credit card at all

10/23/2007 8:02:35 AM

I've done it at local small-town joints, and as said before just paid it the next time I went in because I knew the owners.

10/23/2007 8:16:30 AM

[old]

10/23/2007 8:34:48 AM

DO YOU NEGLET TO TIP BARISTAS ?>!?!?!!?!?!

10/23/2007 10:26:09 AM

ive done this a couple times.

its usually better b/c the percentage they add on is lower than what i usually tip when im that drunk.

fuck it, just go back the next day

10/23/2007 10:30:02 AM

i was with a group of people once a while back and a couple of us left, apparently they thought we payed and left later without paying... nobody had a card on file, but it was only for a couple pitchers

still felt like an ass

10/23/2007 10:31:39 AM

I came close one night in New Orleans. I was at the hotel's bar, and met up with two women. I was completely hammered, and they were getting ready to head to a club and were pulling me out the door with them. We get to the valet station, and while we were waiting for them to bring the car around, I remembered I had left my tab open and told them I had to go sign for it. One of them tells me the name of the club (which is a short distance away), kisses me, and I go back in to pay my tab. I was so trashed that, by the time I walked back out the door, I forgot the name of the place. I walked around for awhile and couldn't figure out which fucking club it was so I went back to my room and passed out.

D'oh! This kind of shit happens to me all the time. and I mean ALL THE FUCKING TIME. If I hadn't already broken the ice, I'd swear I was destined to be the real-life 40 yr. old virgin.

10/23/2007 12:26:43 PM

it happens...sometimes its not even cause you're so drunk...you're just ready to go somewhere else and the next day you're like "where's my debit card"

10/23/2007 12:28:12 PM

I think I forgot to sign the thing once last year :\

10/23/2007 2:39:27 PM

i dont remember paying mine last night. but i have my card so i must have

10/23/2007 2:44:39 PM

it's no big deal, they just charge you for it

10/23/2007 2:46:12 PM

You just hope they're honest.

Most places will charge a mandatory 18% gratuity on there if you leave without settling.

10/23/2007 2:53:11 PM

i forgot to pay in greenville this weekend - i have no recollection of when i left the bar or how i got seperated from my friends

my tab at the bar i left my card at was only $22 but the bar before that i managed to close out was $90!!! damn i don't remember spending that much
