irrelevant.

I don't doubt that some clubs will try to get away with being selective, perhaps for the 'weapon' reason already mentioned...but what matters it the liquor license itself.

All it takes is for the LLBO to say it's all or nothing...i.e. the license applies to ALL washrooms or no license.

solution, if the bottle danger is *that* serious in certain clubs...switch to cans or require patrons to put their beer into a cup before entering a washroom.

this really isn't that big of a deal...why people can't have their friend hold/watch their f'n drink for 5-10 minutes is beyond me. If you're friend takes too long...free drink for you

No. Neither does Vegas. Those 2 cities are major tourist attractions so they need to be more lax on their public drinking laws than other cities. Moscow doesn't count either. That city has no laws.

As for New york, can you really walk down the street in Downtown NY with a beer in your hand without attracting attention from the cops?




Barcelona, pretty much anywhere in Spain or where my rents are from, Cyprus for that matter.

again, not true. You can't just walk right through downtown in any city and not get booked. I know you can't do that in Warsaw or Budapest. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same thing in London.

london is an exception to a lot of things in europe. I guess we take after them.

Warsaw or budapest? Im surprised. Most eastern bloc countries allow it. In bulgaria, macedonia for example it was no problem and i loved it. Same goes for rome, paris and amsterdam.


Posted by drgoodvibe on Oct-18-2006 14:58:

from personal experience un EU cities..

Public drinking is allowed in,

Madrid, Barcelona, Granada, Alghero, Olbia, Berlin (But then again I was there during the WorldCup, I don't think I saw anyone without a drink in their hand.), Prague..

I left out a few islands in EU like Ibiza cuzz we're excluding resorts and tourist attractions right?

I agree. But some people when they drink a lot tend to have to pee every 5 minutes...not enough time for them to finish their drink. I for one have a small bladder and when I'm going downtown drinking, I have to go to the bathroom all the time. I don't drink quickly, so I'm not going to chug my drink just so I can pee.

Thus...the easy solution....have your friend HOLD on to it.

but whats so wrong about allowing people to bring a drink in the washroom in the first place?

Most of the world has allowed it and they are still alive to talk about it. What makes us so special?

but that shouldnt mean that it should be a government law. In fact the government should be in the business of PROTECTING us from those types of lawsuits by changing the courts so that cases like this cant be heard.


Posted by Dj Smitty20 on Oct-19-2006 03:41:

you know what solves this problem?

People can just FINISH their drinks before they go relieve their bladder. It's really not that hard to hold yourself for a few minutes while you finish your drink, take a piss, and then go buy another one.

Fucking ONtario...I hate this province sometimes.

Posted by Jayx1 on Oct-23-2006 02:15:

the finger printing idea is really stupid and a gross violation of privacy.

Interesting though that alcohol related crime is down by almost half since the 24 hour licencing.

Perhaps we could learn from that?
