The Copperfacejacks memory thread

MrMatisse

You can put your best/worst memories of the place here. No one else will know and you will finally get.....closure on those memories by writing them down.

MizzLolly

this should be merged with the 'when did you lose your virginity?' thread

Is that place closing? Never had the privilege of darkening its door...

It will never close!

Its an integral part of every Irish persons life to go there at least once.

This is Copperface Jacks you're talking about - it may be physically located in Dublin, but that's the only "Dublin" thing about it. :pac:

No, Coppers is an Irish thing really, not a Dublin thing.


Got in the other night after going to the Door 3 times and kissing an ugly yoke outside.

Got in eventually, paid my tenner and went around a bit. Realised I have no money on me.

Went to the bank machine, kissed another girl don't know how or why, but I think we were talking about boards.

Wasn't allowed back in

Went home and puked until 1 o clock the next day.

I don't remember a thing about the inside of the club TBH, I'd like to know what it was like:D

my lack of memories from being in coppers would be the main memory of the place.was a regular during college and up until the last 12 months or so.it still gets hit every so often though.....sometimes ya just need a coppers night to get mouldy.

I worked on the door in the mid nineties and this is no joke, one particular bloke was in there seven nights a week. I reckon he was a vampire but I don't remember them serving true blood at the time.

I'm always sober in coppers....I always remember everything. :O

I can't remember the last time I was there. I didn't even know I'd been until I found a stamp on my wrist the next morning. ><

Oh gawd! I've been there once and never plan to return! what an awful dive! the DJ does more talking than a newstalk presenter, the clientele speak a different language altogether, the music is ****e, it takes AGES to get a drink, everyone's jacket get robbed and since when is it ok to wear a football jersey to a nightclub??

I was outta my brain on gone off cider and weed when I went, my fella got thrown out for trying to piss inside, and I got thrown out for robbing drinks and abusing some culchies. never again!!!

there once, worst pint ever tasted, ugly girls trying to talk to us, left after hour or so!
My mate from Cork at work tells me horror stories about the place all the time though. As a Northsider I'm too lazy to walk to Harcourt St anyway so i doubt i'll ever be there again, plus I'm probably too old now!

Coppers must be gutted to lose your custom!

In the eight years I have been living in Dublin, I have never once gone into the dump that is Coppers, thank god. People I know will go but I refuse to go, it's just slapsville! I think that it's more of a culchie and southside Dublin thing.

I am proud to say I am one of the few culchies who has never been

Oh, I hate the place! The boys are so rude, they think they can just touch you without permission!! I was there a couple of years ago and some scumbag grabbed me from behind, but with such enthusiasm that he put his hand BETWEEN my legs and groped my special area!!! Yep- he got a clatter for that!!!!!!

Last time I was there, this Garda (aren't they all?!) started chatting to me at the bar. I was chatting away, innocently enough, but then I mentioned my boyfriend in conversation and he just walked away. We'd been chattin a while, and the minute I became off limits he pure stormed off!! It's a meat market!!

Pfft. It's the women who do the most groping.

There's nothing more emotionally scarring than being touched by an ugly woman.

Coppers is a great laugh - the culchie footstamp, fist pump dance always makes me laugh :pac:

Nolanger

Was last in there 10 years ago with a guy called 'Stephen'. Turned out he was a plain-clothes Garda.

I've done that, well usually after asking the question is your BF here? If he is I will walk off, if not I keep going as I was:D

Coppers is the best. Bought my last drink at 3:30am last night.
