- That club is very strict. They card everyone at the door - no exceptions.
- a: Why would a casino card you if they don't even serve alcohol?
b: Because minors aren't allowed to gamble either. - I was at the supermarket buying a bottle of wine and you know what happened? I was carded! I mean, I'm almost thirty!
- They've started carding people at the movie theater because parents were complaining that underage teens were being sold tickets for R-rated movies.
See you tomorrow!
