When I was 22, I got carded for condoms at a 7-11. I asked the cashier how old I need to be to buy them and he said 21.

A few days ago, at the Venetian, a tournament player was carded for having a coke or pepsi in front of him. From the waitress' standpoint, she could not see if there was any alcohol in the drink but wanted to be sure. He raised a stink about it saying, "How could I play in the tournament if I'm not 21?"

I just turned 21 a few weeks ago and you can't even imagine how many times I get carded in the poker room.

According to people I look 14-18 so basically im going to have to expect an ID check for the next 20 years.

I even get carded with a stamp on my hand [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

"Still I find it hard to believe that people have never seen it, ever."

I'm with you Bro. I have seen it many times over the years. Including Red Rock just a few days ago.

FWIW, I've seen it more at Venetian then any other poker room in Vegas.

Best Wishes

PS, I must be the only person that thinks Capone looks young?

I was Venetian for a few days this week. While playing tournaments, I was carded for water twice and coffee once. While playing blackjack the blackjack dealer carded anyone who stopped walking within earshot of the table. It was really really annoying as she kept stopping the game over and over and over. Definitely one of the worst table game experiences I've had.
