كم أون إفريبودي

This happened on the night of the Knicks Championship game. The bouncer that night was Andy. Two of my friends and I rsvp’d to the watch party where we were rudely turned away at the door. The reason was fake IDs. We are 28, 26, and 24. Also, we were sober and properly dressed; Andy specifically said our IDs were fake. I have a Michigan license that I renewed to get a Real ID last January, my friends have a Wisconsin and Arizona license that were also valid. Andy barely looks at our IDs and says “nope, nope, and nope.” We’re stunned to say the least and they asked if we wanted a second opinion. We of course said yes and we saw them walk in, not talk to anybody, walk about, and said “they said I’m okay (to turn u guys away).” We also thought it was because of our out of state licenses (which would’ve still been more than shitty), but then they did this “fun” show and tell game where they took this persons ID from Colorado and compared it to ours (again our licenses were from Michigan, Wisconsin, and Arizona). Andy could not give us a straight reason on why our IDs were fake because yanno THEY WEREN’T! So we left! If they really thought our IDs were fake then why didn’t they take them? After that we went to a bar maybe 300 ft from C’mon Everybody and got in just fine and got drinks. Same at the bodega down the street because crazy enough; our IDs are all valid and real! I will happily come back to show my ID again to educate the staff at Cmon Everybody on what a valid license looks like from Michigan. I am also seeing other reviews of people getting turned away for “unacceptable IDs” so this is obviously a continuing issue. Do better.

My friends and I tried to go 6/13 for the Knicks game watch party. We couldn’t even get in because the security denied our valid ID’s . His name was Andy, he gave once glance at our drivers license and denied us with no explanation. I had to ask multiple times why he was turning us away. He was incredibly rude, I understand that he has a job to do but I’ve never been turned away for my valid drivers license that doesn’t expire for another SEVERAL YEARS. It was incredibly frustrating and his tone was unnecessary and we even asked him for a second opinion. Thank god this wasn’t a paid event. I’ve been wanting to check out this bar for a while now. We went to other bars in the area and had no problem with our IDs. I’m so confused if you carry a specific policy for IDs but I’ve never had this happen before.

Actually not a place for everybody… this is exclusively a space for men. Came here during pride as a lesbian with a couple other lesbians and we were denied entrance despite the place being empty. It felt misogynistic and gross - do not recommend this space - it falls into the trap of many gay bars in the city in that it is exclusively reserved for male queerness
