Not allowed wear a hat in club?

Seloth

Honestly does anyone know why?

Only in very few Clubs this seems to be the case,and those that hold this no
hat policy seem to take it very seriously!

Don't get me wrong I could understand if it were a "classy club" and this regarded dress code,but no,Any club I've been that has this policy(Only three clubs to me recollection) were far from being a place of style or class at all,and to add as well no this hat wouldn't cover my face either.

Any body with knowledge from the trade care to explain because I find it quite stupid to be perfectly honest.

Edit-Yeah I know I put in where instead of wear...(Mods could ye change please hah)

To be perfectly honest I find it quite stupid that people wear hats indoors, but hey that's just me.

I'm not in the bussiness but I would assume it would have to do with identifying someone on cctv in the case of a brawl or drug dealing?

It's for security reasons as you've said. It helps identify people on CCTV in the event of trouble

On a hat stand maybe...

You could understand that point with certain hats such as Baseball caps etc
but most clubs don't have this policy and many hats would'nt take away from identification.

In a large group of people with poor cctv quaity it would still be hard to make an ID on someone with a cap on, they could slip it off and vanish into the crowd?

It would be easier to make an ID on someone who wasn't wearing anything that was covering their hair.

As for why certain clubs enforce this policy, it must come down to the clubs reputation for trouble (brawls/drug use) and the crowd that go to it. Certain clubs do attract certain people...

It's actually amazing how much hats camouflage your face.

I wear a hat a lot outdoors, and people I know well pass me by without saying anything in public. And they do look at me, they just don't recognise me at all.

So i'd say it's got to do with Identification.

Wearing hats indoors is for posers, idiots, students, drug dealers and scumbags.

There is a possibility.

No seriously, my good friends and family walk by me without even noticing sometimes. I always wear a hat outdoors, the odd time i'd do without one. They recognise me straight away when i'm without one.

It's crazy!

It's correct hat etiquete.
I applaud doormen and their public spirited attempts to raise the level of good manners, eitquete and satorial stylings of todays club-goers.

It's a disgrace, I should be allowed wear my sombrero wherever I like

Hat in a club, where do u think u are? The jersey shore?

it's also due to the fact that you might be hiding a rabbit in your hat.
And as we all know pets aren't allowed in clubs.

*obvious joke about plenty of 'dogs' in clubs*


Erm... I'd be wearing a hat a lot. A cap on backwards. Generally speaking the only time you ever see me without one is when I'm at home. When cycling, if it starts to rain or such, i find that a hood is useless as it just gets blown back by the wind, so turning my cap forward is usually the issue solved.

Also do a bit of photography, and it can be handy for blocking out glare from lights by holding it up alongside the lens when doing certain photos.

I don't go out much, if at all, as I'm not much of a drinker at all, but when I'm out for a night I usually have a cap on, too. I've never been stopped but I'm known by the bouncers on the venues I'd be in now, anyway, so...


Though I can see why people would have issue with it.

Last time I wore a hat into a club a girl took it and ran off with it.

I know what you mean, I cant stand that wasted rock star Pete Doherty look and those pork pie/trilby hats...... overused and conventional at this stage.

GavRedKing

Depends, baseball cap resting on the back of your head at a 90 degree angle = Not tonight.

Top hat accompanied with a monical = Come right this way good sir.

pickarooney

What is this, France? It's my religious duty to wear a hat in a nightclub.

You should never wear a hat indoors, its manners (unless its a safety cap/hardhat or something like that).

I'm glad the clubs are forcing manners on the lost generation, pack of simples.

Biggins

I can't understand why most folk wear hats (and dark glasses) too indoors.
I mean come on! Do ye really have to look like a prat and advertise it too!

The only time I wore a hat in a club I was called Alex Mack and Hey Arnold by a group of girls, even though I was deeply upset I did what any confident man would do, I removed my hat, approached the bar where the girls were standing, as I was ordering my drink I farted on them, it came out of me like a whisper, like a light squeeze of talcum powder, cinammon in texture but violent szechuan beef in taste, it must of covered two or three feet like a baby's sneeze, straight into the middle of their group, I knew it was a champion because of the lingering sting it left on my anus and also by the sense of guilt I felt, I knew I had to make my exit proper sharpish. I was about to leak worse than the Fukushima nuclear plant, my rectum in reactor 7 had set the alarm over a possible major radiation release. So I grabbed my pint but not without looking back at the mini chernobyl I left in those sluts faces WAH! :pac:

I think that's also a reason for the ban, or at least that's what a bouncer once told me. When someone wears a hat in a club, you'll always get some twat trying to grab it and then fights start.

Still don't see the point of wearing them indoors. My head would be boiling.

WindSock

Ugh, like those large wooly hippy hats? Guys should be shot on site for wearing them.

When you wear a hat indoors, women try to take it off you. I have a lovely cowboy hat that attracts far too much undesirable attention.

Virgins: buy a cheap cowboy hat, the craic you can have rolling round on the disco floor with some hot young one in the pretence of getting your hat back is immeasurable.

Only cowboys should wear cowboy hats.

Was this before you were arrested for attempted rape.

I was in Edinburgh in winter and was asked by a bouncer to take off my woolly hat as I walked in the door of a pub. I said 'Oh sorry I didn't realise there was a funeral on'. He wasn't impressed.

Well that spittoon has been sitting there for 10 minutes and you've yet to fire a zinger of tobaccy next, nigh or near it.

So I'm gonna have to say you ain't a real cowboy son.
