Anecdote from a bar in Phuket, a young nephew of mine went into a bar in Bang la the other day looking for a drink and a chat with a lass or so, and before he knew it, he was dragged in to playing some sort of games with the gals where drinks that he supposedly ordered were served to one and all, and soon after he was presented with a 6,000 baht bill for drinks which he paid and left the place unhappy.
