Bouncer wouldn’t accept my wife’s real id. Said it’s too small and whoever made it did a bad job. She was so excited to go to this place and this guy didn’t even think we are 18. We are 22. Man bun bouncer loves using the tiny power he has in this world.

The bouncer was on a power trip. Really rude. Will never come here again.
