What bar room tricks and skills have you been taught in the pub?

Anything from the usual barroom challenges to the simple tips and tricks that revolve around the pub, and apparatus found there.

I'm in my mid thirties, but only recently discovered this gem from my brother.

Old pool table; push the coin device in to turn the drain that houses the balls. Only allow the coin device to come back slightly and put a 20c piece in the gap underneath it. It holds the drain at a permanently turned position, meaning free games of pool.

Save on booze by drinking cold tea instead of whisky. The following morning you can create the effects of a hangover by drinking a thimble full of washing up liquid and banging your head repeatedly on the wall.

Frequenting a lot of pubs will at least teach you how to talk comfortably to men (and women) of every class.

Shane MacGowan;

Back around 1992, I met Shane for a drink in Joe Corcoran's snug. we were having a quiet jar when some asshole stuck his head in from the bar and asked Shane to sing a song. Shane said "Not now, maybe later." This went on for about a half an hour and we were getting pissed off as we hadn't met for a while and had a few things to talk about. 

Shane: "What do you do for a living?" 

Asshole: "I'm a carpenter" 

Shane: "Make me a ****ing table"
