Re: Not Allowed to Enter at The Aviation Club in Paris because of my Shoes
 

I remember another post about this a while back. When I went to Aviation, i made sure to dress well. I did not want to give them any reason to prohibit me as an American who spoke no French. I got in and had a good time and nothing but pleasant interactions (I did a TR about a month ago FWIW). For the most part, the French players were underdressed (or at least compared to my expectations). I think that they were strict with you because the bouncer was looking for some reason not to allow an outsider into the club that night. Dress codes can often be highly variable and are an excuse to legitimize exclusion. Sucks, but just like at major clubs, it happens.

I was in Kulua Lumpur, Malaysia...Only Islamic country I've ever made it to. They try to keep the folks from gambling, but Asians is Asians, even Islamic ones, so they have to give 'em one casino, but they do hide it well. It's a few hours away from anything, but I had the itch to LAG with the best, so took a 3 hour bus ride into the mountains. Then a ski lift. Then i see the room is called the French Quarter...that's where I'm from, can't be bad. Stopped me at the door, I didn't understand Malaysian, but I assumed they were saying "No jews, baby" Seemed like he wanted to tickle my feet...


Oh, my sandals...[censored]. I hated those sandals too, only reason I borrowed them was that I was 12000 miles away from anybody I knew. Also my toes had recently been bitten by every bug in Asia and needed relief.

Return bus was 5 hours later and I couldn't get booze outside of the casino that wouldn't let me in.

They did have bumper boats, though. No one yelped at my sandals there at least.
