Good news for those that like pints - doubt it will make the Health Ministry Happy - contest for the most drank and all. Can Thais enter? Seems like a rather xenophobic name 'farang fridays' - but I like it.

I guess they know who can drink more, as it says "for the Farang that can drink the most"

splitting hairs - so no Thai is welcome to enter then? Ok. and what is the criteria - volume from the time they open till the time they close? what's the prize - a pint of beer and a wicked hangover? haha

If the pints are like those served at the TV bash they aren't worth 100.... poured from a jug in the fridge that tasted like it had sat there since opening, maybe even left overs.. it was pretty bad. Will try it once more but, it better impress!

Why not call it Crazy Friday's, I would feel a bit offended when I enter a place that says's cheap drinks for Thai's only.

A bit like South Africa some time ago.

I guess the people that run the marketing department are not the most brightest ones.

(You can hire me, to come up with some really funky promotions to increase your net profit)

what do they mean by farang ? ... caucasians (correctly) or foreigners (incorrectly) ? my wife can drink, she is from new zealand but ethnically asian, she'd win hands down

you've obviously never met any kiwi chicks, because if you had you realise I was just pointing out the obvious

If I did I can't remember them mate, but here is a joke your Mrs would appreciate. sorry off topic but funny at least...

Strailya Mate!

An Australian, a Kiwi and South African are in a bar one night having a beer.

All of a sudden the South African drinks his beer, throws his glass in the air, pulls out a gun and shoots the glass to pieces.

In Seth Efrika our glasses are so cheap that we don't need to drink from the same one twice,' he says.

The Kiwi, obviously impressed by this, drinks his beer, throws his glass into the air, pulls out his gun and shoots the glass to pieces.

'Wull mate, in Noo Zulland we have so much sand to make the glasses that we don't need to drink out of the same glass either,' he says.

The Australian, cool as a Koala, picks up his beer and drinks it, throws his glass in the air, pulls out his gun and shoots the South African and the Kiwi.

He turns to the astonished barman and says, 'In Strailya mate, we have so many bloody South Africans and Kiwis that we don't need to drink with the same ones twice.

Guy's we can make jokes about it but I think this needs some serious attention.

The marketing department of Larry bar is promoting racist actions, (I am sorry don't know how to say)

Again I offer my advice that will increase the net profit without being racist.

Larry you can give me a PM and we can have a talk.

Kind regards,

Alex

Oh, calm down you big poof. Do you also go around all the venues that have ladies nights and claim they are being genderist ?

Get a grip Alex - if that's the most "racist" thing you ever see in Thailand then you'll be doing well - although I am sure that "Larry" will be just dying to get some of your advice (lah)

[futureexpat]

I guess most of the Thais I've encountered use the term incorrectly.

Look at this way Alex: if you come and they don't offer you the special, you can always say you saw a UFO overhead

and I'm sure the thais you encounter(the literate ones anyone) could tell you what ชาวต่างประเทศ means

[AlexLah]

Ok Laaaaaaaaah,

Sorry, had a bad hair day.

I asked five Thai friends about the use of farang. All of them have university degrees and have either worked overseas or are currently working in a company where they have to communicate (meetings, reports, e-mail, etc.) almost entirely in English.

One said that farang should only apply to "white" foreigners of European background, all the rest said it may have been that way in the past but that it now applied to anyone who looked like a Westerner.
