So, where have you been thrown out of?

Centralites,
Have recently read that Humuhumu had been kicked out of the Atlantic Ocean and Tiki_Bong was tossed from Sam's Seafood. Both entertaining tales. Any other funny (or remarkable) bouncer tales out there? I got disinvited at Sloppy Joe's in Key West once, but that was all just a big misunderstanding. Really!

I was thrown out of Conchy Joe's in Jensen Beach, Fla. The bastards.... all because I was wearing a tank top. They didn't like my beachcomber hat either. And I threw something at the hostess. Well, let's just say I'd been drinking Anjeo before arriving.
I also got thrown out of Otter's Landing in Sanford, Florida for passing drinks over the fence to some nice looking ladies. That was okay because I left with the chicks.

Those of you who've known me for a while know that I'm a bit of a cemetery tourist. (I'm the one who found Trader Vic's grave and posted it here.)

For celebrity gravehunters, getting thrown out of Forest Lawn in Glendale is a rite of passage. Gravehunters are not welcome there, especially in areas that are (supposedly) not open to the public.

I haven't been thrown out of Forest Lawn (yet) but I was once asked to leave the opulent semi-private gravesite of Danielle Steel's son Nick in Colma.

I was thrown out of the Indian Creek Post Office after telling the Postmaster where to shove his regulation manual. Luckily my boss had a cousin high up in USPS bureaucracy and our 18 trays of mail with the wrong date on it got delivered anyway.

Cookoos Nest, Costa Mesa.
I discovered bouncers don't like to be called "Biiig, big moonnkey mon."
No sense of humor.

Taco Bell In Mahattan Beach, Redondo Fun Factory, El Porto Market AKA El PORNO Market, Mahattan Village Mall, Toy's R' Us, Chuck E Cheese Ball Room, McDonalds Ball Room (various locations), Various grocery stores throughout the south bay. None of these were for cursing, Spitting, shoplifting, or violence. Just General Nonsense.

I was kicked out of "Slices", which is a very wild bar in Cancun. Actually, there is a brothel run out of the place and the madame got tired of my drunken conversation and had me ejected, but not before a couple of the girls poured liquor down my throat. I was so drunk I have no idea how I lived. Awful night. You can image how drunk you must be to get in trouble in a Cancun bar...

I was kicked out of a miniature golf course about 10 years ago - after getting bored with playing mini golf, which usually occurs after about 3 holes, I began getting aggressive when going for my putts. After driving 2 balls out into a four-lane highway and having to go back to the counter and replace them, I was ready for the coup de Gras - I called my next shot saying I was going to break the window in the attendant’s shack. Using just a bit of force I tapped the ball, it deflected off the brick backstop of the 12th hole and got airborne. My jaw dropped as I watched the fluorescent blue orb explode in slow motion through the plate glass window. As you can imagine my round at the mini golf course was over and the owner was a little perturbed as you can imagine.

The Dresden in Hollywood.

Took a shot of tequila and spiked it on the floor in '97.

Haven't been back since.

I was forced to leave my mom's womb by a Doctor with a knife!

I'm glad I'm usually alone when I read posts like this one and make the kind of snorting sound I just did.

I've never been thrown out of anyplace. Probably because in order for that to happen, someone would have to notice I was even there.

PJ!
I don't think anyone would overlook you! Ok, you're 5'2" and just a touch over 100#'s, so you're petite, but us guys would definitely find you!

(PurpleJade's photo of PurpleJade courtesy of PurpleJade) :lol:

Hubba Hubba, I think there's a different reason she's never been thrown out.

That's right I said, "Hubba Hubba"

blush

"Purple! Purple! Purple!" :cry: cried Jan, running away in tears. :P

PJ: I'd pass a drink over the fence to you anytime... (as long as I passed one to Wahine Marian at the same time).

My friends and I were thrown out of the Last Chance Saloon in Grayslake Illinois once. They tolerated us dropping my cousins shorts to his ankles (we found out that he goes commando), they even tolerated when his shirt got lit on fire. But they did not tolerate our loud accusations that they watered down their drinks. One other time, a few years back, I was on a party boat for my brother in laws b-day on a lake in Wisconsin. We where thrown out of three bars before we even got to them. Seems the first bar on the lake that we stopped at called all the other bars and warned them that a boat full of "dunken a-holes" was on its way. They all threw us out before we even made it to the door. Oh, the memories.

I think about 50 of us got thrown out of Billy's a few months back....or, "asked to leave". Most of us were allready "gone" by then anyway. (damn Lapu Lapus at Royal H.!!)

I got thrown out of Our Lady of the Snows Catholic School for "fraternizing" with Danielle Dxxxx.........the nuns were indignant, our parents were mortified, and I got to quit wearing maroon sweaters and grey pants!

When I was in grad school I was hired for a night by the Chicago Art Institute to "guard" the Buddha Hall during a ritzy shin dig for a bunch of doctors. The Buddha Hall had no tables for empty coc-ktail glasses, so I allowed people to array them about the tops of the bases for the Buddha statues.

About ten p.m. the curator came through and saw the feet of his Buddhas surrounded by expired drinks and demanded to know how I could have "let such a thing happen!!"

I said, "I didn't think Buddha, of all people, would have minded."

I didn't get to stay 'til the end of my shift.

Ooh, and another time? I was thrown out of band camp.......

I guess we'll never need to wonder why you're "Geeky" Tiki. :)

That's right, Ben! The entire SoCal chapter (a coach busload) of Tiki Central was thrown out of Billy's, one of our stops in the last Orange County Tiki Crawl.

Cynfulcynner --

I grew up in Glendale and while I was in high school I attended a Halloween party at a house that shared a wall with the back of Forest Lawn. The host of the party had snuck over there earlier and hidden pumpkins and we had a pumpkin hunt at midnight. We were all too drunk and freaked out to stay too long so I can't say we were kicked out but it made for a good time.

Years later ... I was working as a florist in Glendale and used to deliver to Forest Lawn. We delivered to the underbelly of the main building where they store the caskets and um ... you know ... in the freezer. It's very decorative down there at Christmas because it's a place the public never sees ... Xmas lights strung on the caskets, plastic Santas on the doors.

If you ever want an inside view of a mortuary, go with a florist!

All hail the freaky tiki!

Believe it or not: I was thrown out of JAWS a nightclub that used to be along Newport Blvd, in Costa Mesa. I took Michelle Pfiefer on a date their and she wanted a sip of my drink,.....HEY, how could I say no. (she was 18 at the time, and they admitted 18 and older.) Next thing I know some guy as big as a moose whose shadow went on forever says we has to leave. Ahhh memories.
My wife hates this story.

I was thrown out of Oceanic Arts because it was closing time. I was having a great time. First time there and I live 7 hours away, so it might be the only time too. I did not want to leave; I was like a 6 year old getting thrown out of Disneyland. They had to throw a tiki air freshener out the door, so I would chase after it and they would close the doors and lock them behind me (bastards) Just kidding, they are extremely nice people.
Ya, this is a 'pansy post" but I've lost count and usually don't remember of how many bars I've been taken out from. I'm a happy drunk, mind you. I had to build my own tiki bar to compensate. Now unga happy.

I was 86ed from the Reno Room in Long Beach.
(Where did that expression come from?)
Anyway, I was encouraging all the patrons to change their evil ways...
To this day, I can't even drive by the place without saying a couple of hail Mary's!

I was thrown out of high school for telling an art teacher that her appraisal of my new masterpiece was 'a bunch of misguided, narrow minded, horse shit'. I got back in two weeks later after telling the principal, who looked like Dom DeLouise, that I wouldn't do it again. I didn't get back in to ALL of my classes, however... my 8th perioid art class had mysteriously vanished from my new and improved schedule, and thus I got out of school early every day thenceforeth.

A decade later I was thrown out of a swank restaurant in Chicago called Mia Francesca for having a food fight. My date and I were tossing bread at some freinds of ours at a nearby table (and vice versa), but the people at the two tables between us were not amused.

After being presented with our check, in the middle of our dinner, I asked the waiter if I could have a cup of tea. He looked at me, paused, and simply said, definitively and without emotion, 'no'. Then he turned on his heel and left. We tipped him handsomely.

Finally, I was kicked, politely, out of the Mai Kai at something like 4AM one week ago tonight.

I was more or less behaving, but I just didn't want to leave.
They were very understanding.

i was kicked out of class in high school for asking my english teacher, Mr. Peck, "How's Mrs. Peck and all the little Peckers?"

Man, how could I NOT take advantage of a (completely unsolicited) quote like that! :)

Here it comes again...

This is kinda embarassing but here goes. I have been asked to leave Hollywood, Palm Springs and Mexico by the local police.
In the eighties my friends and I got kicked out every new wave club in the S.F. valley. Usually for forging handstamps and sneakin in. I think I was 86'd from this one club on Topanga over twenty times. We changed hair color/styles so often back then I guess the bouncers never recognized us the following week s.
I was also one of the audacious participants in the infamous Billy's at the Beach incident. ( to hell with all those snotty bum lickers)
A while back I was booted from Nicholby's in Ventura for perpetrating a pirate lightshow during a friends set. Well it was probally more due to the fact I was helping myself to the beer that was behing the bar. I was escorted out by two monkeymen who were both so thick they didn't notice that all of my pockets had bottles of beer stashed in them.
Booze and friends the perfect recipe for questionable behavior. I miss the days of being a little punk and not giving a crap. Getting old sucks ass!
