On Saturday I went to the Grand National at Aintree. It was part of a long weekend in Liverpool, a city I have never visited before. I didn't drink whilst at the racecourse as I don't like drinking alcohol in large crowds, but when I got back to Liverpool Central station I went across the road and into one of the Irish pubs opposite. As I went in a doorman / bouncer / security blocked my way. He asked me where the rest of my group was. I told him I wasn't part of a group and that I was on my own and just wanted a pint. He told me that I couldn't come in as they only allow groups in. I looked at him with a certain amount of incredulity and wondered if it was a wind-up.
I've been in groups that have been refused entry before, but never when on my own. I said again it was only me and I was sober and wasn't looking for trouble, but no I wasn't part of a group so no entry. Had I had a couple of beers I would have stood and argued with him but I decided it wasn't worth it and walked away.
Has anyone else ever had this before?
