    1) Who charges a tenner for a pint?
    2) Who would be stupid enough to pay a tenner for a pint?

    Me and a mate were in the smoking area of a pub a while back, just me and him, 2 fellas came in a while later. Just the four of us then. One of the fellas had a full pint of bulmers that he put down on the table, my mate had a pint of lager. They started chatting away to us, the guy with the bulmers stopped talking in the middle of a sentence, picked up my mates pint and casually said " gis' a sup of that" as he lifted it to his mouth, with his pint of bulmers right on the table.:eek::eek: My mate pushed the pint away from his mouth and just went 'no'. For some reason they thought just because we talked to them, they could have some of our drink. Then my mates friends came and the 2 messers left fairly lively.

    Moral of the story...bulmers is manky.Also people try rob your drink even if you're right in front of 'em.

    I never mentioned pints, just a "drink" but I have heard of pubs in dublin charging 8.60 for a pint bottle of bulmers. A double jack daniels & coke would be over 10 in most places.

    Still if they robbed a pint its the same as robbing the wallet with a fiver or whatever in it.

    I HATE THESE PEOPLE!

    Girl I used to be friends with is notorious for it. If you watch her through the night you can see her tipping someone else's drink from the table into her glass. You can't leave your own drink with your friend like. Or she will pick up a drink, sniff it and claim that was what she was drinking.

    She will then proudly put as her facebook status the next day how she went out and got drunk but not spent anything because of her robbing. Retard.

    Scummy fookers whoever does this!

    Happened to me a couple of times, I learned not to leave drink lying around anymore though.

    Recently had my jacket whipped on me.. Unbelievable.

    Scum is the only word

    At my cousin's wedding some 'ol lad came stumbling over to our table, plonked himself down and helped himself to my pint.

    :eek: = the face of the two lads I was sitting at the table with, but what can you do - family wedding, aul lad...and off he waddled again, silhouetted by the disco lights.

    cheap dirty miserable pricks steal drinks in nightclubs. happened me the other night I was so annoyed I just left or start fighting.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 387 ✭✭DaveDaRave


    The introduction of the smoking areas in 2004 led to a lot of unprotected drinks near said smoking areas, which allowed me to get seriously intoxicated many times usually only going out with five euro.

    But now, feels regretful man.

    Backwash/a dollop of phlegm in whatever is left over in the glass when switching pubs is a handy trick.
    Oh my stomach :(



    Drink robbers are the scum of the earth. Stop air-stealing and die, you filth.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 579 ✭✭✭chalkie 501


    Was out years ago with a gang of lads in a club where you couldnt let go of your pint without it being whipped, anyhow one of the lads came in late and started downing pints off the head to catch up,after the 4th or 5th pint we just knew he was going to spuew. he picked up the empty pint glass and gawked straight back into it,it looked just like a pint,lovely frothy head and everything.
    yup,the pint went missing soon after,
    although the drink was such ****e in there anyway i'd say the thieving fecker hardly new the difference!

    A vast majority of students are "scum of the earth" so haha never steal drinks myself know a few lads who do when they are broke......1 of them stole a drink, chugged it in the bathroom and then pissed in the bottle :o when he came back it was drunk :P A lot of this drink stealing goes on with people who have had far too many and just take the first thing they see....being in a nightclub sober will open your eyes to these things!

    To find out who's stealing your drink fill an empty glass with Harpic.

    I do pub/club security and I love catching people robbing drinks. It's usually pretty easy to spot. People constantly waking around looking at unattended drinks, casually placing their hands near them to see if anyone reacts and then grabbing them and scurrying away to down then as quickly as they can.

    Then when they're confronted they try and knock back whatever is left of the drink. That's when I accidentally knock off their arm and they spill the drink all over themselves. Whoops.

    If I spotted who owned the drink I'd usually threaten the thieving prick with the Gardai unless they pay for what they robbed. Usually works.

    Another favorite is to get the barman to whip up something that looks like a pint that might contain salt and lime and place it near someone I know is robbing but can't prove. Cue the robbing idiot taking the concoction, drinking it and getting kicked out for their efforts. Entrapment? Probably but it works.

    It's a pet hate of mine both as an employee and a customer and it just gives a place a bad name when people get away with it en masse as happens in one place I work because it's so busy.

    Or staff had to take the glass away. The same way with piss drinks lads. Not everybody is smart enough to only piss a small bit in and when its full of piss its obvious to anybody.


    Stealing pints is cunty but try not to be a **** to somebody who doesn't deserve it at all.

    i'm not saying pissing into the glass is ok,in fact its so wrong.....how do you know you wont be served a drink in it later on in the night,
    to be fair to my mate who puked into the glass,it was either that or all over the floor

    If your drink is stolen you should be thankful. Rarely in life do we get such a clear indication of the appropriate course of action, which, in this case, is: Don't ever set foot in this establishment again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,342 ✭✭✭overshoot


    and just remember the hands that lift your glass are the hands that serve the pint!

    True story:

    A friend of mine put a pint of Guinness down in a bar and one of our mates took a dump in it. He told my friend but he still insisted on drinking the pint. He got mental ill and had to go to hospital and ended up missing a year of college he was so sick :eek:

    Put it in your pocket instead of leaving it around.

    A lad I play football with was having a bad night of it on a night out a while back. Everytime he'd get a drink it would disappear after a while. Stupid enough of him to keep leaving it in the same spot we thought. Next morning he told us he p1ssed into an empty glass and left it in his usual spot and that got taken too. He had no drink go missing then for the rest of the night.


    this needs to go into the happened to a friend of a friend thread. Read it many times here on AH!

    Don't leave it down, it's as easy to spike it as steal it.

    Spike your own drink and leave it down

    a certain pub in swords has polish women who rob your drinks. NEVER spend a penny the whole night and get their x factor free champagne to boot!

    Done this once, funny circumstances. Was doing roadie work for Irish group Mammas Boys in Glasgow, whilst I was helping this other roadie lift an amp through the rock club foyer (The Venue - Hard Rock Cafe) some guy put his pint on top of the amp when we stopped to rest for a few seconds, off we trotted with the amp and I drank his pint. He probably looked round after wondering where that sideboard with his drink went to.

    Recently had my jacket whipped on me.. Unbelievable.

    This happened to me the two times I went out in Balbriggan. I was fairly pissed off about this the second time, and fairly scaldy, so I said "Shur feck it" and grabbed a random jacket from the cloakroom.

    If the guy I stole it from needed one, he could also have taken one.
    It's the circle of life, or something.
