Dunno how it is for Wetherspoons pubs as a whole, but in the one in my town has a rule that children are not permitted after eight pm. This is cuz people were bringing their kids late at night and letting them run riot while they swilled back the booze.
Anyway, one night my friends and I decided to head down the Wetherspoons for a few drinks. We arrived at around half past eight, and saw the following altercation between a woman and the bouncers. The woman was accompanied by three little girls, aged around eight to twelve and was demanding that the door staff let her in. The bouncers were explaining the rule about no kids after eight, but the entitled mum wasn't accepting it.
Entitled Mum: How dare you? This is discrimination against children! All I want to do is have a nice dinner with my kids, why is that too much to ask?
Bouncer 1: I'm sorry, but the rule is that no children are permitted after eight pm.
Entitled Mum: That's a stupid rule! We never eat before this time, why can't you just let us in?
Bouncer 2: Those are the rules.
Entitled Mum: Well then, I'll just come in round the back. You won't be able to stop me then once we're in.
Bouncer 2: If you do that, then we will have no choice but to call the police and have you removed.
Entitled Mum: How dare you? Well, you've just lost yourself a customer. We'll go to Pizza Hut instead. *flounces off*
Seriously? This rule has been in place for over five years. Also, I feel sorry for her kids if she makes them wait til nearly nine pm for dinner every night while she argues with bouncers. XD
