Seriously?

[DocN]

So...we had a company- party last Friday and after getting seriously hammered with free booze (and seriously confused, with all our Thai- colleagues having fun with...games..I guess....), we (4 farang guys) decided to head on, into town.

I am not mentioning the name of the club, but it was one on the upper LEVELS of Sukhumvit 11.

Honestly, I had no clue about that place, but we were all clean looking, good smelling and ready for adventure, when we arrived there.

3 guys got in without any problems- including me and I was just wearint t-shirt, jeans and sneakers.

One of my friends was stopped and not allowed in.

Since he wore t-shirt, jeans and "normal" shoes, we couldn't really figure out, why he was not allowed.

So we asked.

The problem was that he wore a "logo"- shirt of a beverage company, that was not part of the clubs- beverage contract partners.

...

Fair enough, you might think...if you don't know, that his shirt featured the logo of LAOW KAOW!

So...seriously, guys?!

The famous Laow Kaow- brand, responsible for blindness and braindeath all over the country, is the real competition for the stuff you sell at 250 Baht a glass, I assume?!

I assume, because we did not make any more efforts to get in.

We just took our money (and it was a considerable amount) to a nearby club, that had no problem with a Laow Kaow- shirt...

Why didn't he just turn his shirt inside out?

Or zipped up the road and got a quick suit made.

We are funny in that department: if you are stupid, we are just gonna go somewhere else...

I mean...come on...it's Bangkok.

You don't need to put up with that sh...

Obviously they were less impressed with you than you were.

Yep...seems the economy is going well for them!

Few years back something silmilar happened to a friend of mine.

Dress code was trousers he had a pair of jeans on.

After about 10 minutes talking to the doorman they went round the corner. M8 gave the doorman some cash and they swopped jeans and trousers , problem solved

Cant see a doorman doing that back in farangland

I'd not been planning on going out, I'd just stopped off for a pint in the pub between the ATM and picking up my laundry, but I met up with K in the Pub, and we decided to go on to a certain nightclub that we knew that had a good band and dancers.

"Sorry, sir, you can't come in wearing shorts"

"Not a problem, mate, I've got my laundry with me"

and I doffed my shorts and donned some breiks in the car park
