    I was out in town on Friday night at a gig, sitting down at a table, pint in front of me, friend beside me, pint in front of her. Random bloke I'd never met just boogies on over and mid dance move grabbed my pint and brought it up to his lips. I grabbed it back off him and declared angrily "THAT'S MY ****IN PINT!" and placed it back down in front of me. He then reached over and grabbed my friend's pint instead.

    Wtf? :confused:

    Wanted to throw it in his face after that but that would be a waste of alcohol.

    jaysus im all up for the saying if u dont succeed at first.......but that just takes the biscuit

    I don't really understand how people get their drinks stolen. If you're stupid enough to leave your drink unattended, you deserve to have it stolen imo. If you want to go for a dance or to the toilet either finish your drink first or bring it with you.

    Even worse though are the people who leave their bags or jackets down somewhere, leave all their valuables inside and then feck off to another part of the pub for the night. They're then shocked when they come back a few hours later and their wallet/phone has been stolen. Seriously, what do you expect to happen in a room packed full of drunk people?
    well in all fairness you dont go out on a weekend and focus your whole night to minding your drink and the fear of not been able to put it down for 2 mins.

    Every night I worked at Dinn Ri there would always be some sobbing, clueless girl and her 2.5 friends wandering the aftermath for the things she was probably too stupid to hang onto.

    Also: if you drink out of a hip flask, theres nothing to put down, and nothing to pay :pac:

    I find that if I'm ever going to punch someone in a bar, it's usually better to just call over the bouncer and not get both of us thrown out. Because then you're both on the street, you both try and beat the **** out of eachother, and you both end up arrested. Just another nightly occurrence at that ****ing place.

    You really don't know? and you're the one calling me and others others stupid?:rolleyes: People leave them unattended to go out for smokes all the time, bouncers do not allow you bring it out. Not everybody wants to down 3/4 of a pint in one go to go to the toilet or outside.

    If people are such fucking worthless cunts that they steal drink/money they deserve to be arrested or have their face kicked in.

    Its weird how these scumbags are trying to justify their behaviour, I always wondered if they recognise they are assholes, reading these posts it seems some do, its a pretty sad existence going around all day in the knowledge you're nothing but a thoroughbred cunt.

    The peopl charging over a tenner for a drink should be the ones in cuffs if you ask me.

    :rolleyes:

    What about the people paying 10, they are the ones keeping the prices inflated not the owners

    i wouldn't chance robbing anyones drink, i know a guy who had a argument over a pint in a nightclub in cork a good few years back. He grabbed someone elses pint , argued with the guy and ended up getting glassed in the face. everytime i see him, (he still has the scar as a result) i think of what happened that night. i think most times you'd probably get away with it but there's always a chance of something happening.

    Why would you leave your drink down, it could get spiked as well as stolen and you're in trouble then

    Right but a lot easier to do it when someone has walked off and left it unattended I imagine

    I can see a really funny youtube vid in the making as a result of this thread. It would be so easy... just rig a camera pointing at a particular table in the nightclub for the night.

    Scene 1 - The Monkey Gland)
    Buy a vodka redbull, pour it into a pint glass, stir it with your knob and leave the drink on the table

    Scene 2 - The Cuba Libre)
    Get an ould lad who smokes 40 major a day to hack up some lung butter into a mai-tai. Stir and serve

    Scene 3 - The Chocolate Soldier)
    Pop a straw into an unadultarated G & T.
    The straw has just been up your anus.

    Scene 4 - Long Island Iced T-bag)
    Drop your hanging basket into a long island iced tea. Leave until it shrinks out of its own accord, minus the residual sweat. Garnish with pubes and serve.

    Scene 5 - The Bloody Mary)
    Use your imagination for this one. You'll need a girl on board.

    etc...


    Edit together after the club and stick it on youtube for lols and roffles

    Was out on sat night and caught a lad swiping my pint. He walked by the high table with his 2 bum chums and kept goin.....so obvious. I calmly walked after him grabbed his arm and asked for it back, he knew he was stung. I layed a guilt trip on him saying he was well dressed and prob had 100 euro in his wallet.....he felt bad and said sorry

    You should go to the bar at Leinster House. Theres many a hairymollie cocktail or Paddys gone missing from there. The best thing about the Dail Club is you dont get trown out if you "forget" to pay. Yeah!! Drink nicking is rife in there but you can always get another "freebie". :P
