I have heard of it, though I don't know any specific place that has the rule. It's designed to keep away the locals who just want to party or need a place to perform illegal activity.
It doesn't make too much sense, though. We get a lot of decent locals who are having work done on apartments, are flooded out of their homes, and unfortunately a LOT of battered spouses escaping an abusive situation for the night. Where are they supposed to go if no place accepts locals?
It makes much more business sense to simply blacklist the partiers and drug dealers, and still let the locals come in.
